SYRACUSE, N.Y. – Five former members of the Syracuse football program, including Jacksonville head coach Doug Marrone, took the field during Week 12 of the 2018 NFL season.
Defensive end Chandler Jones was a forced to be reckoned with yet again. He tallied half a sack and two quarterback hits in the Arizona Cardinals' 45-10 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Jones now has 11 sacks this year, which ranks fourth in the NFL, and he has a quarterback takedown in nine of Arizona's 11 games.
Meanwhile, Tampa Bay linebacker Cameron Lynch matched his career high with two special teams tackles in the Buccaneers' win over the San Francisco 49ers.
Here's a quick recap of how Syracuse football alums fared in the 12th week of the season:
Chandler Jones, DE, Arizona Cardinals
- Three tackles, including half a sack, in Arizona's loss to Los Angeles.Â
- Fourth in the NFL with 11 sacks and tied for seventh with three forced fumbles through 11 games.
Cameron Lynch, LB, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Recorded two special teams tackle in Tampa Bay's win over San Francisco.
Zaire Franklin, LB, Indianapolis Colts
- Played, but did not record any statistics in Indianapolis' win over Miami.
