How two Terps are making their presence known in Buffalo, another strong game from JC Jackson and more in Week Four of Terps in the NFL:
Stefon Diggs
WR Stefon Diggs is making the Bills front office look like geniuses, continuing his sizzling start to his first season in red, white and blue, posting six receptions for 115 yards in Buffalo's 30-23 win over Las Vegas.We think that @StefonDiggs trade worked out. 😉

The highlight of Diggs' day came early in the fourth quarter when Stef made a Randy Moss type grab, a 49-yard reception that will go down as one of the catches of the year in the NFL.
Full. Send.

That marked Jefferson's first career forced fumble. The defensive lineman just wanted to make a play for his team in a big spot.
"I could see the quarterback trying to step up in the pocket, so I wanted to rake the ball out. I was just trying to make a play for our team."@Q_JEFF | @GoBonnies

Trade paying off so far, but the Vikings need to lock him up this offseason

Ty Johnson
New city, new team for RB Ty Johnson as the rusher was picked up by the New York Jets last Friday afternoon. He heads to Jersey after spending his first season and a half in Detroit. The Jets are missing an injured Le'Veon Bell in their backfield, possibly opening up playing time for the second-year back.ICYMI: The Jets claimed former Lions RB Ty Johnson https://t.co/UMXTxQVN1d pic.twitter.com/1GERgqzPAa
