Miami Dolphins outside linebacker Emmanuel Ogbah recorded the second interception of his career early Monday night, and he had more success hauling in the ball with his legs rather than his hands.
When Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis fired a ball straight to Ogbah, it went right through the pass rusher’s hands. But he managed to squeeze his knees together in time to hang on to an unlikely pick.

The Dolphins fooled Levis on the play with a disguised blitz that sent Jalen Ramsey tearing off the right side of the offensive line and dropped Ogbah into coverage.
While Ogbah isn’t known for his coverage skills, a turnover is nothing new for the Titans offense. Levis, a second-year quarterback threw five interceptions in the first three weeks and fumbled three times. Miami’s eight turnovers entering Week 4 led the NFL.
The first interception of Ogbah’s career came just last season when a pass from the Denver Broncos’ Russell Wilson was tipped by Da’Shawn Hand at the line of scrimmage.
