Several former Huskers played prominent roles as the 2002 National Football League season began Sunday. The contingent was led by Green Bay running back Ahman Green, who rushed for a league-high 155 yards in the Packers' 34-31 win over Atlanta. Defensively, Mike Minter had six tackles, as Carolina snapped its 15-game losing streak with a 10-7 win over Baltimore, while Mike Brown?s fourth-quarter interception sparked Chicago?s 27-23 comeback victory over Minnesota. The following is a recap of how former Huskers did in this week?s games.
