Tar Heels in NFL: Michael Carter, Cole Holcomb, Robert Quinn have big days

Posted Jan 3, 2022
Robert Quinn made history in Chicago’s 29-3 win over the Giants. He recorded his 18th sack this season to break the Bears’ single-season record of Hall of Famer Richard Dent in 1984. Jets running back Michael Carter got off to a hot start with a 55-yard run, but his day was cut short. Washington linebacker Cole Holcomb had five tackles and six assists. (Tar Heel Tribune)
