We're officially into the second half of the 2022 NFL season, as every team seven to nine games remaining. There's a lot of football still to be played, but I wanted to highlight some of the top player-on-player matchups over the rest of the season.
These are the one-on-one showdowns that put elite playmakers up against each other, including high-end receivers against ball-hawking defensive backs, powerful edge rushers against reliable offensive linemen, and more.
I dug into the numbers for six matchups to watch in the second half, starting with Minnesota's Justin Jefferson against Dallas' Trevon Diggs in Week 11. Why will each of these six matchups be critical in their teams' pushes toward the playoffs, and which of the game-breakers has the edge in their premier head-to-head?
