This past weekend was the Divisional Round of the 2024 NFL Playoffs, and a handful of former NC State football players were in the mix.
Pro Bowler and All-Pro Left Guard Joe Thuney and the Kansas City Chiefs advanced to the Conference Championship game against the Ravens, defeating the Bills 27-24. Thuney played in 37 snaps, and didn’t give up a sack or a pressure. His snaps were limited because he left the game with a strained pectoral muscle. His PFF grade was 74.5.
Wide Receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (played his first two seasons at NC State before transferring to South Florida) had 2 receptions for 62 yards in Kansas City’s victory.
