Former Vols who saw significant action

Justin Coleman – DB – Seattle Seahawks

In the Seattle Seahawks’ win over the Denver Broncos Monday night, Justin Coleman had five tackles. Three of them were solo, so he proved he’s still got it at nickel.

Jauan Jennings – WR – San Francisco 49ers

His team lost 19-10 to the Chicago Bears, but Jauan Jennings is showing everybody why Tennessee football fans loved him. He led the San Francisco 49ers in receiving with four catches for 62 yards on the day.

Alvin Kamara – RB – New Orleans Saints

It wasn’t his usual Pro Bowl numbers, but Alvin Kamara still had nine carries for 39 yards. He also had three catches for seven yards as the New Orleans Saints beat the Atlanta Falcons 27-26.

Emmanuel Moseley – DB – San Francisco 49ers

Starting for San Francisco as they lost to Chicago, Emmanuel Moseley didn’t make a splash, but he did his part. The undrafted Tennessee football cornerback had two tackles.

Darrell Taylor – DE – Seattle Seahawks

Living up to his second-round draft pick hype, Darrell Taylor had two hits for the Seahawks as they beat the Broncos 17-16. Coming off an injury last year, that was pretty impressive.

Shy Tuttle – DT – New Orleans Saints

Just like Kamara, Shy Tuttle started and did his part to help the Saints win. He came away with two tackles on the defensive line.

Morgan Cox – LS – Tennessee Titans

As the Tennessee Titans lost 21-20 to the New York Giants, Morgan Cox continued his career as an epic long snapper. He was in on 11 snaps for them Sunday, including the game-winning field goal that Randy Bullock missed.
