The end of the regular season is finally here, and it was a wild year in the NFL to say the least. There were 34 walk-off wins during the season, more than any previous NFL season on record.
The shining moment from this week for Ole Miss Rebels in the pros, however, was Laquon Treadwell finding the end zone for the first time this season and showing all the haters that he is indeed back.
AJ Brown added another touchdown on the season, and I doubt it will be the last time this year. Brown and the Titans secured the top seed in the AFC with home-field advantage secured through the postseason.
Seven NFL Rebs will be making an appearance in this year’s playoffs so check back weekly to see who will come out on top. It’s wild card time!
ACTIVE NFL ROSTERS:
- Elijah Moore, New York Jets: Moore did not play again this week with a quadriceps injury.
- DK Metcalf, Seattle Seahawks: Without a playoff berth on the line, the Seahawks still managed to perform very well against the Cardinals and ultimately get the win over Kyler Murray and Arizona. Metcalf wasn’t as explosive as last week but still managed to put up an impressive 58 yards on five receptions.
- A.J. Brown, Tennessee Titans: The Titans are heading to the playoffs, again. With the help of AJ Brown’s touchdown, Tennessee came out on top over the Houston Texans.
