The All-time University of North Carolina NFL Team

Posted Apr 6, 2022
Arguably the greatest pass rusher in NFL history came out of UNC. But Lawrence Taylor isn’t even the highest Tar Heel on the NFL’s all-time sack list. That honor belongs to Julius Peppers, who retired after 17 seasons in 2018. There are 42 members of the NFL’s 100-career sack club and two more Tar Heels in that fraternity, William Fuller and Robert Quinn. (Sports Illustrated)
