As the Packers linebacker saw the double-team form in front of him during the waning moments of Sunday’s game against Dallas, Perry’s instincts were to follow Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott through his progressions to perfectly time the throw.
With Clay Matthews bearing down on Prescott off a stunt, Perry jumped as soon as the ball left the rookie quarterback’s hand. It proceeded to bang off his shoulder and fall to the ground as an incompletion.
It was a critical play in the game, forcing Dallas to settle for a 52-yard field goal with 35 seconds remaining.
