Longhorns in the NFL: Week 15 LilJordan Humphrey scores first career touchdown – Burnt Orange Nation

LilJordan Humphrey, WR New Orleans Saints

Get you some LJ!

Humphrey caught his first two career passes in the Saints loss to Tampa Bay, with one of those being a 17-yard touchdown reception. LJ has spent the majority of his first two years in the NFL on the New Orleans Saints practice squad, playing in only seven games. However, with Michael Thomas now on Injured Reserve, Humphrey suited up and made the most of it. Now all three of the Longhorns wideouts from the 2018 team (Duvernay, Johnson, and Humphrey) have scored in the NFL.

Colt McCoy, QB New York Giants

Well, if you ever wondered what a Texas-OU game between Colt McCoy and Baker Mayfield would be like, you kinda-sorta got a taste of it Sunday night. McCoy played relatively well in his second start of the season, throwing for 221 passing yards with zero touchdowns and zero turnovers.

The Giants offense stalled in the red zone three separate times and turned it over on downs twice, including this, um, interesting play call from Freddie Kitchens. Offensive coordinator Jason Garrett tested positive for COVID-19 and missed the game while quarterback Daniel Jones was scratched due to lingering ankle and hamstring injuries.

And in classic Colt McCoy fashion, he took the blame for the loss after the game even though it really wasnt his fault.

If McCoy gets the nod again next week, hell face the Baltimore Ravens with New York one game back in the NFC East.

Brandon Jones, DB Miami Dolphins

This play was overturned and wiped out a Dolphins touchdown, but lets just enjoy it anyway.

Six total tackles for the rookie and the Dolphins continue to hold onto the final wild-card spot in the AFC.

Adrian Phillips, DB New England Patriots

Wanna hear a wild stat? In his seven years in the NFL, Adrian Phillips had never recorded a sack, until Sunday.

Charles Omenihu, DL Houston Texans

Kris Boyd, CB Vikings

Malcom Brown, DT Saints

DOnta Foreman, RB Titans

Geoff Swaim, TE Titans

Kenny Vaccaro, S Titans
