Tre Boston, Sly Williams Carry Tar Heel Banner Into Super Bowl

Tar Heel football will be well-represented in Super Bowl 50 Sunday in Santa Clara when defensive tackle Sylvester Williams (Carolina Letterman 2011-12) of the Denver Broncos makes his second Super Bowl appearance and safety Tre Boston (2010-13) makes his first with the Carolina Panthers. “It’s still a little surreal for a lot of us,” says Boston.
