It takes all levels of the defense working in tandem to slow down top-level offensive talent late in the season, and on this play, after the opposing quarterback was flushed from the pocket by the pass rush, it was Isaiah Rodgers in the Eagles secondary who put the finishing touches on this third down stop, making a break for the ball to knock it away before the pass could find its intended target. The pass defended was Rodgers' only entry onto the stat sheet in this one, as the Eagles defeated Kansas City, 40-22, to win Super Bowl LIX on Feb. 9, 2025.
