Patriots Stars Shout-Out Unheralded Defender After Earning Team Honor

New England Patriots defensive tackle Jeremiah Pharms Jr. rarely finds himself in the spotlight.

He did Sunday, though, thanks to an exceptional showing in a 19-3 win over the Chicago Bears.

The little-known Pharms turned into a game wrecker on New England’s interior defensive line, registering by far the best performance of his NFL career with a sack of Caleb Williams and three tackles for loss.

The top-tier production from Pharms, who was inactive not long ago against the Jacksonville Jaguars, certainly didn’t go unnoticed by his teammates. Pharms’ fellow defensive tackle Davon Godchaux made sure the unheralded defender got his due.
