Tar Heels in NFL: TDs for Michael Carter, Mitch Trubisky, an amazing Javonte Williams run

Posted Oct 3, 2021
Michael Carter and Mitch Trubisky both ran for touchdowns Sunday. It was Carter's first NFL score to help the New York Jets get their first victory of the season. Carter started for the second straight week and had 13 rushes for 38 yards. Oh, and Javonte Williams had another one of those runs where he plowed through half the defense for a long gainer.
