SALT LAKE CITY – Former BYU and current Los Angeles Chargers defensive back Michael Davis picked off Cincinnati Bengals quarterback with an impressive one-handed interception.
The Bengals hosted the Chargers on Sunday, December 5.
With 4:35 left in the first quarter, Burrow unloaded a deep pass to Ja’Marr Chase. The rookie wide receiver bobbled the ball and it bounced into the air. Davis hauled in an interception with an amazing one-handed grab by his right arm.
It was Davis’ first interception this season.
