John Johnson III picked a perfect time for his first interception of the season, and it came against his former team, nonetheless. In the fourth quarter with the Rams leading by just one point, Johnson patrolled the middle of the field and picked off Joe Flacco’s deep shot easily.
He returned it 42 yards to help set up Cooper Kupp’s touchdown, which gave the Rams a 27-19 lead – making things much more comfortable for Los Angeles.
Here’s the interception by Johnson, who continues to get better each week in his increased role in the secondary.

Kupp hasn’t had a huge impact as a receiver in recent weeks, but this touchdown was a big one.
