Falcons RB Devonta Freeman, Packers S Ha Ha Clinton-Dix and Giants P Brad Wing named NFC Players of Week 15

Running back Devonta Freeman of the Atlanta Falcons, safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix of the Green Bay Packers and punter Brad Wing of the New York Giants are the NFC Offensive, Defensive and Special Teams Players of the Week for games played the 15th week of the 2016 season (December 15, 17-19).

Freeman posted his third career three touchdown game in Atlanta’s 41-13 win over San Francisco. The running back out of Florida State is the only player in the NFL over the last two years who has had three games with three rushing touchdowns and now has seven multi-touchdown games for his career.

Clinton-Dix intercepted two passes from Bears QB Matt Barkley on back-to-back series in the third quarter on Sunday in Chicago, both setting up touchdowns for Green Bay's offense in the victory.

Wing had a 41.0-yard net average on seven punts, including one that was partially blocked and travelled only 18 yards. With the Lions trying to mount a comeback in the second half, Wing booted three consecutive punts that forced them to take possession at their own three, four and 19-yard lines. Detroit totaled just 11 punt return yards, and three points on seven possessions following Wing’s punts.
