We’re back for more National Football League!
Jihad Ward, defensive end: Monday Night Football featuring an Illini defensive player? Nice! Ward had two tackles, including a tackle-for-loss in Baltimore’s defeat to Kansas City.
Del’Shawn Phillips, linebacker: The Buffalo Bills had the LA Rams in town as the 2-0 teams squared off. Phillips was injured and did not play, but on the bright side, the fact that he was not placed on Injured Reserve means there’s a good chance he’ll suit up sooner rather than later.
