On Sunday night, former Texas football players Byron Murphy II and Michael Dickson won a Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks.
Murphy and Dickson both contributed to Seattle's 29-13 win over New England in Super Bowl LX, which was played at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif. Murphy was responsible for two of Seattle's six sacks, and the defensive lineman also recovered a New England fumble. Dickson averaged 47.2 yards per punt while pinning three of his seven kicks inside of the Patriots' 10-yard-line.

Former Texas defensive back Quandre Diggs is also on Seattle's practice squad. The 11-year NFL veteran did not play in Sunday's game.
