Former BYU linebacker Kyle Van Noy earns second Super Bowl title with Patriots

Kyle Van Noy earned a second Super Bowl ring, thanks to a tremendous defensive effort.

The former BYU linebacker and the New England Patriots beat the Los Angeles Rams 13-3 in Super Bowl LIII at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta on Sunday night, the third straight title game appearance for the Patriots and their second Super Bowl win in that span.

New England won its sixth Super Bowl title in the Tom Brady-Bill Belichick era.

It was defense, though, that dominated Super Bowl LIII. Van Noy, who started at linebacker, had four tackles in the game and a second-quarter sack that ended a Los Angeles drive that had reached Patriots territory.
