Terps in the NFL: Week Six

Through six weeks of play in the National Football League, Maryland is one of only two schools (Alabama) to have two wide receivers in the top-10 in the league in receiving yards. Stefon Diggs ranks third with 555 yards and DJ Moore ranks 10th with 474 yards.

Both WRs had another impressive Week Six, as well as an interception for JC Jackson and Ty Johnson getting carries in New York in our latest Terps in the NFL:

Stefon Diggs

Week after week, Bills WR Stefon Diggs stars in Buffalo and this Monday against the defending Super Bowl champs was no different, As Diggs caught his third touchdown of the season in a TIGHT window with the toe drag. Diggs brought the heat on the field and with his cleat game. After a tough loss, Stef was the one there for his teammates.

DJ Moore

Panthers WR DJ Moore put in another solid performance as he continues to heat up, tallying five receptions for 93 yards to lead the team, marking his second-straight game with 93 receiving yards. Moore is averaging 17.6 yards per reception, good for fifth in the league among receivers with over 15 receptions. 
Just like his counterpart from Buffalo, Moore brought the heat to the cleat game, honoring a Nickelodeon show that was a hit among 90s babies: Hey Arnold.

JC Jackson 

Patriots CB JC Jackson continued his dominant play against the Broncos on Sunday, hauling in his second interception of the season to go with two pass breakups and a tackle.  Snaps from the INT:

Ty Johnson

Jets RB Ty Johnson earned action in New York's game at Miami and made the most of it, recording 42 yards on three carries, including a 34-yard run, the longest by any Jets running back since 2018.
