Welcome to the post-Christmas edition of the NFL Africa Zone. This week belongs to the Africans playing defense in the NFL as they showed up and showed out over the Christmas weekend.
Fear not though, we do have an Alvin Kamara mention, but for now let's show some love to the players that prevent opposing teams from putting points up on the scoreboard.
Player of the week
Ezekiel Ansah (Detroit Lions #94) Defensive End
Accra, Ghana's very own had his second three sack game of the season in the Detroit Lions loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.
