With Braden Fiske injured, the Rams needed someone to step up in his place on the defensive line and Neville Gallimore delivered with one of the biggest plays of his career. On second-and-6 with the Eagles at their own 8-yard line, Gallimore burst through the line of scrimmage and sacked Jalen Hurts in the end zone for a safety.
The play cut the Eagles’ lead to only one point (16-15), getting the ball back quickly for the Rams offense after only two plays by Philadelphia. It was set up by Ethan Evans’ perfect 58-yard punt, which was downed at the 4-yard line.
It was the Rams’ sixth sack of the game after recording nine against the Vikings last week.
And here’s the aforementioned punt,which was excellent.
