Former Alabama Players Can Continue to Make History in the Divisional Round
The Divisional Round of the National Football League playoffs is scheduled for Saturday and Sunday evening. Currently, three former Alabama players are poised to achieve significant milestones in their upcoming games.

Among them are Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs, wide receiver Jameson Williams, and Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry.
This season, Gibbs (1,412) and Williams (1,001) made history as the first running back and wide receiver duo to each surpass 1,000 yards on the same NFL team during the regular season. They have the opportunity to add to their yardage in the playoffs, further solidifying their legacy.
Gibbs also led the NFL with 20 scrimmage touchdowns during the regular season, highlighted by a career-high four touchdowns in the Lions' Week 18 win that clinched the NFC North title and the top seed in the NFC. He scored a rushing touchdown in each of his three postseason games last year and has accumulated 34 scrimmage touchdowns in 35 career games, including playoffs.
If Gibbs finds the end zone against the Washington Commanders on Saturday, he will tie Pro Football Hall of Famers Earl Campbell, Eric Dickerson, and Edgerrin James, each with 35 touchdowns, for the second-most scrimmage touchdowns by a player in their first two seasons, including playoffs. Only Curtis Martin, a Hall of Famer, has more with 37.
In the Ravens' Wild Card win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, Henry rushed for 186 yards and two touchdowns, bringing his season totals to 2,107 rushing yards and 2,300 scrimmage yards, including playoffs.
During the Divisional Round on Sunday, Henry has the chance to climb the all-time charts for most rushing yards and scrimmage yards in a single season, including playoffs.
Fans can catch the Lions facing the Commanders on Saturday at 7 p.m. CT on FOX, followed by the Ravens taking on the Buffalo Bills on Sunday at 5:30 p.m. CT on CBS/ Paramount.
