Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets

The NFL season is winding down and there are only two weeks left in the regular season before the playoffs take over. Games are critical at this stage of the season and some former Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will be vying for playoff spots in the next two weeks.

So how did all of the former Yellow Jackets in the NFL in week 16?

1. Darren Waller had a strong game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday, even though the Raiders lost. Waller recorded four catches for 58 yards on five targets in his second game back from injury. The Raiders are unlikely to make the playoffs but have not been mathematically eliminated yet.

2. Shaq Mason helped lead Tampa Bay to victory over Arizona on Sunday night and the Buccanneers are one win away from winning their division.

3. Pressley Harvin faced Waller and the Raiders and he had a tremendous game, punting three times for an average of 46.7 per punt and had a long of 55 yards.

4. Tariq Carpenter got two tackles in the Packers' win over the Dolphins on Sunday.

5. Jack Coco remains the Packer's long snapper and took part in the Packers big win over Miami

6. Adam Gotsis got one tackle in the Jaguar's win over the Jets on Thursday.
