December means the NFL Playoffs are fast approaching so let’s look at how the former Orange on NFL rosters fared this week.
Arizona Cardinals: Garrett Williams
Williams made three tackles before leaving the game against Atlanta. Seems like very unfortunate news for Williams and we wish him a full recovery.
Atlanta Falcons: Matthew Bergeron
Bergeron played 77 snaps and helped the Falcons to a road win over Arizona.
Buffalo Bills: Kingsley Jonathan
Jonathan remains on the practice squad in Buffalo.
Cleveland Browns: Andre Szmyt
Szmyt made all four of his attempts (field goals of 24 and 41 and two extra points) in the loss to the Bills. He’s now 20-23 on the season in field goal attempts.
Dallas Cowboys: Justin Barron and Alijah Clark
Clark played on special teams in Dallas’ loss to the Chargers. Barron remains on the practice squad, but it was pretty cool to see four Orange from last year’s team together again.
Detroit Lions: Jackson Meeks
Meeks remained on the practice squad this week.
Houston Texans- Jawhar Jordan
Jordan had 15 carries for 53 yards and 5 receptions for 17 yards in the win over the Raiders.
Indianapolis Colts: Zaire Franklin and Max Mang
Franklin had 6 tackles and a QB hurry in the loss to San Francisco. Mang remains on the practice squad.
Jacksonville Jaguars: LeQuint Allen
Allen had 4 carries for 11 yards and 1 reception for 5 yards, plus a 50 yard kickoff return in the win over the Jets. He should get more opportunities with Brayshul Tuten out for a few weeks with an injury.
LA Chargers: Oronde Gadsden, Marlowe Wax and Savion Washington
Gadsden had just one reception for 7 yards while Wax played on special teams in the win over the Cowboys. Washington remains on the Chargers practice squad.
Miami Dolphins: Iffy Melifonwu and Isaiah Johnson
Melifonwu had two tackles in the loss to Cincinnati. Johnson didn’t play this week.
New England Patriots: Tommy DeVito
DeVito remains New England’s third quarterback.
New Orleans Saints: Fadil Diggs
Diggs stayed on the practice squad for New Orleans.
New York Jets: Andre Cisco
Cisco has been confirmed to be out the rest of the season.
Philadelphia Eagles: Kyle McCord
McCord remains on the practice squad in Philly.
Seattle Seahawks: Courtney Jackson
Jackson was on Seattle’s practice squad again this week.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Riley Dixon and Sean Tucker
Tucker had only four rushing attempts for 3 yards, but once again he found the end zone. This gives him 7 touchdowns on the season. He also returned 2 kickoffs for 36 yards. Dixon had three punts for an average of 44.7 yards with one punt inside the 20.
We’ll keep you updated on these players as the NFL season progresses.
