#ProJackets Report, Week 3

Sept. 28, 2015

Demaryius Thomas and Calvin Johnson were on display during NBC’s Sunday Night Football as the receivers combined for 17 catches for 169 yards in the Broncos’ 24-12 road win at Detroit. Thomas finished with nine catches for 92 yards and a TD, while Megatron added eight catches for 77 yards.

Defensively, Baltimore Ravens’ LB Daryl Smith led all #ProJackets defenders with seven tackles a week after securing eight stops.

Below are few social media posts following Sunday’s Denver/Detroit game where #ProJackets Calvin Johnson (Lions) and Demaryius Thomas (Broncos) exchanged jerseys.
