There are times in a football game when new Bears defensive end Darrell Taylor is so excited he can’t contain himself. Well, at least one time there was.

When Seahawks teammate Quandre Diggs intercepted Raiders quarterback Derek Carr on the first play from scrimmage in a 2022 game, Taylor burst off the sideline to celebrate the play — except Diggs’ return was still going on. Diggs had fallen to the ground after making the pick, but was not touched, so he was a live runner.
