PSO via USA TODAY Sports
September 19th, 2021 was remembered for an all-time classic SNF game where Lamar Jackson’s electric plays and clutch conversions combined with a game-sealing forced fumble by rookie Odafe Oweh led Baltimore to an upset win over the Chiefs. Plenty of GW-FGA took place in Week 2 as the Titans and Cowboys Kickers clutched up while Vikings K Greg Joseph failed when it mattered most. Justin Fields got his first extended taste of NFL action and Eagles EDGE Brandon Graham unfortunately tore his Achilles.
See what happened in sports on September 19th last year, headlined by Justin Verlander needing Tommy John surgery and the Boston Celtics winning a must-win ECF Game 3 vs. Miami as well as what happened in sports on September 19th, 2019 ft. Gardner Minshew making his first career start in Jacksonville while his defense put up a whopping nine sacks in one game.
