WATCH: Landon Collins slithers through a sea of Rams for pick-six
Collins goes sideline-to-sideline to tie the game for the Giants
The New York Giants have not exactly gotten off to the best offensive start on this Sunday morning in London (they've run 22 plays for 82 yards as of this writing). Their defense has not put up all that much resistance against Rams quarterback Case Keenum, either, but they did take advantage of one big mistake.
Midway through the second quarter, Keenum threw over the middle for Tavon Austin, but the throw was just a tad high and it bounced off Austin's hands. It popped all the way up in the air and dropped into the arms of Landon Collins, who then went to work.
Are you kidding, @TheHumble_21?!?!?

This Landon Collins INT return TD is INSANE. 😱 #NYGvsLAhttps://t.co/53sKg9ZzFT
That's some return. It's officially a 44-yard interception return touchdown, but I wouldn't be surprised if, when the NextGen stats are released, we find out that Collins ran over 150 yards to get the score. (Update: It was 84 yards. I way over-estimated here.) He also broke an incredible five tackles on the play, and avoided a pack of four Rams on the right side of the field before reversing and heading all the way to the left sideline, too. Just some incredibly impressive work from the second-year safety.
