Irish in the NFL: Week 06

October 19, 2016 by chrisavila_01

It was a quiet week for the Irish in the NFL this weekend. There have been a number of guys out with injuries. Tyler Eifert has been out with an ankle injury but it was refreshing to hear he has slowly begun practicing again.

The one big highlight of the weekend came from Golden Tate and his touchdown. The fun part wasn’t so much the score (unless he’s on your fantasy team) but more his celebration after with the Detroit cheerleaders.
