Nissan #ProJackets Football Report

Dec. 12, 2016

THE FLATS — Week 14 for the #ProJackets was highlighted by a spectacular one-handed catch on the offensive side and an interception on the defensive side, and will be capped off with two more #ProJackets suiting up against each other for Monday Night Football on Dec. 12.

Wide receiver Demaryius Thomas continued his strong season pushing his streak to five or more receptions to 12 straight games. He had his best week of the season on Sunday, as he hauled in 10 catches for 126 yards, including a highlight reel one-handed catch against the Titans.

Morgan Burnett helped lead the Green Bay Packers to a 38-10 rout of the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday afternoon with eight tackles, five solo and three assisted, one pass defended and an interception.
