The Falcons defense only has one takeaway over the last five games but the team has matched that total in the first quarter of Monday night’s game against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Cornerback Dee Alford forced the ball loose from Alexander Mattison and Kevin King recovered fumble. This recovery gave Atlanta possession in Raiders territory.
Watch Alford force the ball loose from Mattison, as shared by the NFL’s social media account below:
