Former Mizzou standout Marcell Frazier nabs game-changing pick-six

Former Missouri defensive lineman Marcell Frazier nabbed a pick-six on Saturday that can be described as both impressive and easy.

Frazier’s ability to get in the backfield, disrupt the play and pickoff the pass are all impressive. With the play being deep in Tampa Bay Vipers territory, the Seattle Dragons lineman had one of the easiest walk-in touchdowns for a defender.

The sequence of events leading up to the score add to the excitement of Frazier’s pick-six. Tampa Bay, leading 9-6, was called for delay of game. Frazier ran into Tampa Bay QB Quinton Flowers but was not flagged. A Vipers play retaliating to Frazier, however, was flagged, backing up Tampa Bay even further, closer to its own end zone.

Unbelievable sequence for the Seattle Dragons

Frazier’s pick-six appears to be play of the game for Seattle, as the Dragons now lead 14-9 at the 2:00 mark of the fourth quarter, with the ball. Seattle entered Week 2 of the XFL season 0-1.
