The football season officially came to an end, as the Seattle Seahawks defeated the New England Patriots to win the Super Bowl and a former Notre Dame star played a big role.
Rylie Mills was taken by the Seahawks in the fifth-round of this past draft, and while he didn’t play much, he made a very impactful play in the Super Bowl. Midway through the second quarter, he looked to be locked up with his opponent, only to power his way to the backfield.
Mills would then get to Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, taking him down with one-hard, and registering the first sack of his NFL career. What a moment it was for the former Irish star, on the biggest stage of football. Congrats to Rylie and the Seahawks on a fantastic season.
