2016 NFL Playoffs: Jadeveon Clowney snags interception, setting up Texans touchdown

Jadeveon Clowney is a freak of nature plain and simple. The Houston Texans defensive end showed that against the Oakland Raiders in Saturday’s AFC Wild Card game in Houston.

The Raiders’ third-string quarterback Conner Cook dropped back on the Raiders second drive, looking to find running back Latavius Murray on a delayed screen.

Clowney jumped in front of Murray and tipped the pass into the air. He batted the ball one more time before snagging it out of the air and setting up the Texans inside the five-yard line.

Texans running back Lamar Miller would punch the ball into the end zone on the first play from scrimmage — putting Houston up 10-0.
