Rasul Douglas got some national recognition on Wednesday morning.
Following his pick-6 for the Packers this weekend, the former Eagles draft pick was named the NFC Defensive Player of the Week for Week 12.
It’s the first-career Player of the Week award for Douglas and it comes just a couple days after Aaron Rodgers couldn’t stop raving about him.
Douglas, 27, had a big game on Sunday in the Packers’ 36-28 win against the Rams. In addition to the 33-yard pick-6 (the first of his career), Douglas also had 5 tackles and 4 pass breakups.
