Nick Scott has become a really good player for the Rams in the secondary, stepping up as a starting safety this season. Not only does he lay the wood as a hitter, but he finds himself in position for picks every now and then.
Against the Chiefs on Sunday, Scott picked off an odd pass by Patrick Mahomes in the end zone, a shockingly bad decision by the All-Pro quarterback. Scott was playing underneath coverage and got in the throwing lane to force a critical turnover and keep the game at 20-10 in the fourth quarter.

Unfortunately, Bryce Perkins threw a pick of his own on the next drive, but it still kept the Chiefs out of the end zone.
