Tar Heels In The NFL: Week Five

Posted Oct 8, 2013
Since week one when he had five receptions for 114 yards, Hakeem Nicks has not been as productive. However, he broke out of that slump with a big game in a loss to the Eagles this weekend. He had nine catches for 142 yards, including a long 49-yard reception. Even though the 49ers were blowing out the Texans, T.J. Yates still got his first real playing time of the year. (GoHeels.com)
