Week 12 of the NFL season featured a few Maryland football alumni finding the end zone for the first time in weeks.
No alum came through in a more important moment this weekend than Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo.
For the second time in three weeks, Okonkwo only had one catch on his lone target, but the 2021 All-Big Ten honorable mention’s reception Sunday against the Houston Texans may have been the biggest of his career.
With Tennessee down 23-20 and less than 10 minutes to play at Houston, Okonkwo caught a pass just short of the chains on first down.
