Terps in the NFL: Week 17
1/5/2022 10:44:00 AM | Football
The NFC playoffs will go through Darnell Savage Jr. and the Green Bay Packers as they are the No. 1 seed, while Antoine Brooks Jr. and Jake Funk's Los Angeles Rams are also in the playoffs and will be playing for the NFC West title in Week 18.
On the AFC side, J.C. Jackson's New England Patriots and Stefon Diggs' Buffalo Bills have both secured a spot in the Big Dance and will be playing for the AFC East title and a home game in Week 18. If Diggs beats the New York Jets, they win the division. For Jackson, it will take a win and a Bills loss. LB Keandre Jones and the Cincinnati Bengals also clinched a playoff spot, and the AFC north with a win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.
Congrats to both our guys, who deservingly made the team's playoff graphics.

Ty Johnson
Unfortunately for Ty Johnson, his New York Jets will not be in the playoffs in 2022. But nevertheless, Ty has found a home and had his best year in the league. With RB Michael Carter getting a concussion early in the game, Ty was the featured back in one of the games of the week, against Tampa Bay, running five times for 35 yards and a touchdown and catching three balls for 47 yards.Ty touchdown!
The men in green were PUMPED.The @nyjets take a 24-10 lead over Tampa Bay! #TakeFlight
