WATCH: Calvin Pryor picks off Andrew Luck for first career INT – CBSSports.com
Calvin Pryor, drafted by the Jets in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft, entered Sunday night’s game against the Colts with no interceptions in his career. But on the Colts’ opening drive of the game, Pryor recorded his first career pick.
It came against Andrew Luck, which really isn’t too bad of a way to snag the first interception of your career.
On the play, Luck faced heavy pressure coming around the left edge of the line. Rushed on the play, Luck’s throw sailed high of Andre Johnson, who leapt for the pass. The tipped ball landed in the arms of Pryor, who returned the pick 29 yards.
