Tj Munter's Big Game Can't Quite Lead Drexel/Miami over Greenfield
While Drexel/Miami might've come up empty on Friday, Tj Munter wasn't going down without a fight. Greenfield had no answer to Munter as he forced a fumble and made 16 total tackles (1.0 for loss). Munter didn't just play on offense: he also forced a fumble and made 16 total tackles (1.0 for loss).
Greenfield's probably not too fond of Munter given he always seems to get the better of them. Munter picked up a sack, forced a fumble, and made 14 total tackles (5.0 for loss) the last time he and Greenfield duked it out back in October of 2023.
