Knights in the Pros Update: January 11

ORLANDO – While the UCF football team returned to campus for the start of the spring semester, 14 Varsity Knights saw action over the weekend in the final week of NFL action, the first Week 18 in NFL history, including Latavius Murray, who rushed for 150 yards and a touchdown.

The 150 yards on the ground were the most in a game for Murray since the 2018 season. He carried the ball 16 times, as the Ravens fell to the Steelers 16-13. It marked the running back's 49th-career rushing touchdown and his 51st total touchdown. 
 


Tre'Quan Smith also found the end zone over the weekend, scoring from 13 yards out and finishing with five catches for 76 yards, as the Saints defeated the Falcons 30-20. It marked Smith's third receiving touchdown this season and the 17th of his four-season career.
