Early in the third quarter of the Carolina Panthers’ 31-24 victory over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers threw an interception down the middle of the field. That part of the play wasn’t in dispute.
What came next though ... well, there’s still a lot of anger about it.
After Panthers safety Colin Jones picked off the underthrown pass, he darted up the right side of the field and towards the end zone. Both teams were scrambling, trying to either free up Jones or cut him down.
But in that chaos, a different player got cut down instead – and the Panthers’ Thomas Davis was the man responsible.
