Former Alabama players are used to this kind of thing.
Chicago Bears DB Eddie Jackson scooped up a fumbled Cam Newton pitch and scored a 75-yard TD on Sunday.
The Bears lead the Panthers 7-0 in the first quarter after Jackson’s TD return.
Chicago drafted the former Alabama DB in the fourth round of this year’s NFL Draft. Jackson missed a good portion of the 2016 season after suffering a broken leg against Texas A&M. He was no doubt a primary leader on the Tide’s talented defense.
However, his leg appears to have healed just fine, as Jackson was scooting down the sideline.
