On Saturday, Wisconsin football held one of its last spring practices of the season. There was no shortage of big plays in today’s practice including a phenomenal interception of backup quarterback Chase Wolf by sophomore cornerback Dean Engram.

Although Engram did not start last season, he played in several 2020 games for the Badgers. The sophomore cornerback will likely battle for the nickel cornerback spot in fall camp.
In the clip courtesy of George Balekji and NBC 15 Madison, Engram plays behind wide receiver Jordan DiBenedetto then dives in front of him just as the ball arrived from Wolf to complete the interception. It is exciting to see Engram stepping up for Wisconsin in spring camp, especially after the early exit of former Wisconsin CB Rachad Wildgoose to the NFL.
