Watch: Philadelphia Eagles CB Avonte Maddox with the tip-drill INT off of Las Vegas Raiders QB Derek Carr

Sometimes players are supposed to save their head coach and that’s exactly what Avonte Maddox did after Nick Sirianni gave the Raiders life on a controversial penalty call.

Las Vegas was set to punt on fourth and three when Sirianni chose to make it a third and fifteen. The Raiders continued the drive and ended up in scoring position before Maddox intercepted a short pass over the middle intended for Las Vegas fullback Jalen Richard.

Philadelphia leads 7-0 after a Kenneth Gainwell touchdown catch from Jalen Hurts.
