Georgia Tech #ProJackets Football Report: Week Nine

Nov. 6, 2017

THE FLATS — Week Nine of the NFL season was highlighted by Isaiah Johnson being promoted to the active roster by the Los Angeles Rams, while Demaryius Thomas recorded his first touchdown reception of the season in a loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Defensive #ProJackets Adam Gotsis and Michael Johnson each had three tackles apiece in losses this past week, while Chris Milton registered a solo stop in the Indianapolis Colts’ win over the Houston Texans. 

Fellow #ProJacket Derrick Morgan had three stops and a half-sack in Tennessee’s victory on Sunday, while kicker Harrison Butker made good on his lone field goal attempt for the Kansas City Chiefs against the Dallas Cowboys.

Morgan Burnett hopes to return to the field tonight for the Green Bay Packers as they take on the Detroit Lions on Monday Night Football.

Both Jeremiah Attaochu and Shaq Mason were on bye weeks, while D.J. White was waived earlier in the week by the Kansas City Chiefs.

Below is a complete list of the Football #ProJackets currently on NFL rosters.
