The first week of the 2024 NFL season is officially in the books with 21 former Terps in the league looking to leave their mark. We go around the league to see how they fared:
Days after being named team captain, WR Stefon Diggs shined in his Houston Texan debut after hauling a pair of touchdowns with the second being the difference in a 29-27 win over Indianapolis. Colts safety Nick Cross finished with a team-high 14 tackles in the loss.
Second-year OL Spencer Anderson made his first career start at left guard in Pittsburgh’s 18-10 win vs. Atlanta.
Tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo hauled in the first passing touchdown of the Titans’ season, one of two catches on the day, before Chicago stormed back from a 17-0 deficit to win 24-17 in Caleb Williams’ debut. Wide receiver DJ Moore reeled in five catches for 39 yards while Byron Cowart registered a tackle for Chicago, meanwhile tackle Jaelyn Duncan was active for Tennessee as a swing tackle.
In his first game with Jacksonville, safety Darnell Savage had a pair of pass breakups vs. Miami before the Dolphins scored 13 unanswered points to hand the Jaguars a 20-17 defeat.
Deonte Banks finished with four tackles and a tackle for loss, but it doesn’t matter when Daniel Jones is your quarterback as the Giants fell 28-6 vs. Minnesota.
Cornerback Tarheeb Still was sidelined with a hip injury in the Chargers’ 22-10 win vs. Las Vegas, while cornerback Jakorian Bennett did suit up for the Raiders and notched one pass breakup along the sideline. Both OT DJ Glaze and WR DJ Turner were active with Turner hauling in one catch for nine yards.
Ravens safety Beau Brade and Bucs WR Rakim Jarrett were inactive on Sunday with Jarrett on IR to open the season. Bills RB Ty Johnson registered seven yards on a pair of carries in Buffalo’s comeback win vs. Arizona, while Sam Okuayinonu had two tackles in the 49ers win vs. New York Jets.
Browns defensive tackle Quinton Jefferson recorded three tackles in a 33-17 loss to the Cowboys. Offensive lineman Michael Dunn is out for the first four weeks after being placed on the reserve/ non-football illness list.
