Cowboys safety Malik Hooker puts on a show against former team

Malik Hooker was expected to be a dynamic playmaker when the Indianapolis Colts made him the 15th overall pick of the 2017 NFL Draft. He was definitely that last night, only now as a member of the Dallas Cowboys in their 54-19 shellacking of the Colts on Sunday Night Football.

Hooker had an interception and a fumble recovery in the blowout win. It was a night of career firsts for Hooker; having multiple turnovers in a game and scoring a touchdown since entering the NFL five years ago.

After a brilliant college run at Ohio State, Hooker was drafted by Indianapolis but immediately began having injury issues in training camp.
