DaRon Bland has done it again. The Cowboys cornerback has been an incredible addition since being drafted by the club in the fifth round of the 2023 draft. After leading the 2022 team in interceptions despite only getting significant snaps in half of the games, he’s elevated his play in Year 2.

Now on the boundary, Bland has been the best cornerback in football this season, and he proved it yet again in Week 11. On an outbreaking route, Bland somehow caught up and dove for the ball, securing his sixth interception on the year. But he wasn’t done, getting up and racing the ball back 31 yards for his fourth Pick-6 of the season.

Bland has tied the NFL record in just 10 contests, with his fourth interception return of the season. He’s the fourth to do it, it was last done by Eric Allen 30 years ago in 1993.

Bland now has 11 interceptions over the course of the last two seasons, the most in the NFL.
