Seahawks safety Ryan Neal played the best game of his career in Sunday’s convincing win over the Chargers. For his part, Neal made seven tackles, broke up four passes and came through with a critical interception. He wound up with the highest defensive grade on the team.
What makes the performance even more remarkable is that Neal was – in his words – “sick as hell” during the game. Neal won’t call it a flu game, but his teammates are, per Brady Henderson at ESPN.
