Tar Heels in the NFL: Week Eight

Posted Oct 29, 2013
Hakeem Nicks had seven catches for 51 yards this weekend and now has 34 catches for 521 yards on the season, but still hasn't caught a touchdown pass. Quinton Coples has posed a unique challenge to the Jets this season. With multiple talented defensive linemen, the Jets wanted to find creative ways to use Coples, so they moved him to rush linebacker. (GoHeels.com)
