Former Auburn defensive back Daniel Thomas scored his first NFL touchdown on Sunday.

In the third quarter of the Jacksonville-Los Angeles Chargers game, Thomas came up with a huge play for the Jaguars’ special teams. Thomas blocked a Los Angeles punt from deep within Chargers territory and then scooped it up, turning the turnover into a touchdown.

With the extra point, Jacksonville took a 21-16 lead on LA. The Chargers dominated the rest of the way, though, winning 39-29.
