The NFL season is a mere 1 week old, but Kiko Alonso might already have given us the defensive play of the year.
Playing in his first game as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles, Alonso intercepted Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan in the end zone with a ridiculous one-handed grab.
The Eagles went on to lose a 26-24 heartbreaker on “Monday Night Football,” but man, was that one heck of a play.
It also came with an added bonus: allowing ESPN anchor Scott Van Pelt to reduce guest Tim Kurkjian to hilarious hysterics on his late-night “SportsCenter.”
That’s what they call a win-win.
