NFL playoff action resumes on Saturday. The league has advanced to the divisional round. There are seven former Louisville players who are still vying for a berth in Super Bowl LVIII, led by MVP favorite Lamar Jackson.
Jackson will start the weekend’s action for Baltimore against the Houston Texans. The game, which kicks off at 4:30 pm on Saturday, will be broadcast on ABC and ESPN. Both clubs will feature two former UofL players in the starting lineup. The Ravens have Malik Cunningham as a backup quarterback. Sheldon Rankins and Jonathan Greenard, who finished his collegiate career at Florida as a graduate transfer, make up the Texans defensive line.
Jackson led the Baltimore team to the top seed in the AFC. The 2016 Heisman Trophy winner passed for 307 of 457 yards for 3,678 yards, 24 touchdowns, and seven interceptions while also rushing for 821 yards and five scores on 148 runs, helping Baltimore to an 11-4 regular season record. He was chosen as the AFC Player of the Month to round off the regular season.
