Anyone who watched Donte Deayon play cornerback for the Boise State football team expected him to come down with a leaping interception Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys.
So did Deayon.
Deayon dropped into Dak Prescott’s throwing lane in the end zone and broke up a pass for the New York Giants. The Cowboys scored a touchdown two plays later, on their way to a 20-13 win.
Deayon, who was in zone coverage as the slot cornerback, anticipated the throw to wide receiver Cole Beasley.
“I went up for it but I only got one (hand) on it,” Deayon said.
