Tar Heels in the NFL: Week 17 Update

Linebacker Zach Brown did not play in any of the Redskins’ final three games as a precautionary measure due to an injury, but despite that he still finished with the team lead in solo tackles (84) and assists (43). Brown will be an unrestricted free agent this summer, having signed a one-year deal with the Redskins last year after a Pro Bowl campaign in his only season with the Buffalo Bills. If I’m Washington, I’m doing everything I can to keep him.

Bruce Carter completed a long grind of a season by seeing 21 special teams snaps and one defensive snap for the Jets, although he failed to record a tackle.
