Terps in the NFL: Week 15

The Maryland DBU agenda is alive and well. This past weekend we saw three former Terp defensive backs show out in the NFL.

Let's get to it!

Tarheeeeeeeeeeeb Still

Tarheeb Still is becoming a regular feature of Terps in the NFL. Still had another interception against Tampa Bay along with tallying six tackles and a pass breakup. In 11 games played, Still has 48 tackles (33 solo) and four interceptions.

Darnell Savage had a strong performance on Sunday, going against his fellow former Packer Aaron Rodgers, now on the Jets. Savage tallied two passes defended and five tackles.

Hell of a play by Darnell Savage.

After a second watch of the #Jaguars/#Jets film, Darnell Savage is my Jax defensive player of the game with 5 tackles (4 solo) & 2 passes defensed. He played really well, which likely went under the radar for many due to busted coverages by others in the secondary or LB groups

Nick Cross

Nick Cross continues to have a great year for the Colts at safety. Now sitting at sixth in the league for tackles, Cross added five more against the Broncos on Sunday as well as an interception, his third of the season.
