Utes in the Pros: 2022 NFL Week 14; Week 13 Recap
12/8/2022 8:00 AM | Football
SALT LAKE CITY – We've hit the point in the NFL season where playoff races are heating up, and some key matchups await 12 former Utah Utes in Week 14, among 23 alumni currently on NFL rosters.
Action begins on Thursday night, with former Utah teammates Jackson Barton and Matt Gay squaring off repping the Las Vegas Raiders and LA Rams, a game that airs on Prime Video.
On Sunday, Tyler Huntley's Baltimore Ravens look to break a tie for the AFC North lead. Huntley's squad sits atop the division with Cincinnati and would improve to 9-4 with a win at Pittsburgh. Eric Rowe and the Miami Dolphins (8-4) sit just a game behind Buffalo in the AFC East and will look to close the gap on Sunday Night Football, heading on the road to face the LA Chargers.
In the NFC, the Philadelphia Eagles continue to have an outstanding season, in part aided by Britain Covey's punt return efforts. The Eagles (11-1) lead the NFC East and head to MetLife Stadium for a divisional battle against the New York Giants. Out West, just a game separates the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks in the standings, with each team in action this weekend.
Arizona and Leki Fotu are back in action following a bye, hosting New England on Monday Night Football.
How to watch the Utes in Week 14
Week 14 (players on active rosters)
Byes this week: Chicago (#33 Jaylon Johnson); Indianapolis (#21 Zack Moss, #32 Julian Blackmon); New Orleans (#45 Nephi Sewell)
Three Utes started for their respective clubs in Week 13—including Cody Barton (Seattle), Julian Blackmon (Indianapolis) and Jaylon Johnson (Chicago).
It was great to see Tyler Huntley pull off some late-game heroics last Sunday, punching in a two-yard touchdown for Baltimore to tie the score (and pull ahead with a PAT) in the final minute of the ballgame.
The Seahawks-Rams game also went down to the wire, with Cody Barton's interception sealing the win for Seattle. It was Barton's second pick of the season.
Matt Gay is 18-of-19 this season on field goal attempts—including a long of 58. It gives him a 94.7% success rate, second-best in the NFL for kickers with four-plus field goal attempts.
Voting continues through next Thursday, Dec. 15, for the 2023 NFL Pro Bowl games. You can click here to vote for your favorite Utes.
