There weren’t many highlights for the Atlanta Falcons in their 25-0 loss to the New England Patriots on “Thursday Night Football,” but a former Clemson star provided one highlight.
A.J. Terrell notched his first interception of the season when he picked off former Alabama quarterback Mac Jones late in the third quarter and returned it 35 yards to the Atlanta 48-yard line.
Check out what they are saying about Terrell’s big play in the primetime NFL game:
What a play, @ajterrell_8‼️

AJ Terrell with the interception. Huge play… and can I say? FINALLY. Love to see AJ get a pick with the way he's been playing this year.

not much to be excited about for #Falcons fans but at least they have AJ Terrell
Terrell has been Atlanta’s best defensive player in a breakout season where he ranks 3rd among all corners in PFF Grade (82.6)
even in his yesterday’s brutal loss he put up a 79.9 grade with an INT pic.twitter.com/wncwtzFNxG

#Falcons AJ Terrell finished with a PFF coverage grade of 89.3 and allowed only 4 coverage catches for 32 yards.
A large chunk of that yardage is due to PFF crediting him with the TD that occurred where somehow Nelson Agholor went untouched.
