With a majority of Tech allums either on a bye or on injured reserve, we turn to two Yellow Jackets who made impacts on their respective teams’ victories in Week 14 of the NFL.
Former Tech wide reciever, now tight end for the Eagles, E.J. Jenkins saw action in Philadelphia’s 22-16 victory over Carolina. Jenkins has now played in four games this season and owns the highest run block grade of any Eagle tight end according to Pro Football Focus.
Former Jacket offensive lineman Devin Chochran played in his fifth game of the season with Cincinnati, seeing action on special teams in the Bengals’ 27-20 victory over Dallas. The three-year pro made his NFL debut earlier this season and is continuing to impress as he looks to solidify his foothold in the Bengals main roster, this season.
