Tar Heels in NFL: Downs sets Colts mark in big day; short day for Maye; TD pass for Trubisky

Posted Jan 6, 2025
It was Mitch Trubisky vs. Drake Maye on Sunday and, in an example of how the last weekend of the regular season is different, Trubisky got much more playing time on a day that Josh Downs put up big numbers and Michael Carter scored a touchdown. Downs has 140 receptions through two seasons, breaking Marvin Harrison’s franchise record of 137. (Tar Heel Tribune)
