Here’s how former Liberty players fared this past week of the NFL season.
QB MALIK WILLIS
Malik continues to serve as the backup for Jordan Love. The Packers picked up a win over the New Orleans Saints, 34-0, on Monday night to improve to 11-4. Willis got into the game late when the game was in hand. He completed 1 of 2 passes for 34 yards and also had 3 carries for -2 yards. On the season, Willis has completed 30 of 41 passes (73.2%) for 414 yards, 3 touchdowns, and 0 interceptions. He’s also rushed 19 times for 135 yards and a touchdown.

WR DEMARIO DOUGLAS
Douglas had 4 receptions for 33 yards on 5 targets on Sunday as the Patriots fell to the Buffalo Bills, 24-21. Demario nearly got into the end zone for a second straight week, scoring a touchdown originally but having that call overturned after an official’s review saying the ball hit the ground as he tried to haul in the pass. This season, his second in the League, Douglas has 59 receptions for 541 yards and 2 touchdowns on 78 targets in 15 games played.
