The Falcons defense has carried the team all season and that was the case once again during Sunday’s win over the New York Jets. Not only did Jessie Bates come down with his fifth interception of the year, but the team recorded four more sacks.
Atlanta has 26 total sacks through the first 12 games, which is already the team’s highest sack total since 2020. Linebacker Arnold Ebiketie has been a big part of that turnaround, leading the Falcons with 5.5 sacks this season.
Ebiketie recorded one of the team’s four sacks in Week 13. The second-year linebacker was mic’d up for Sunday’s win. Watch below, as shared by the team’s Twitter account.
