Austin Johnson, the Buffalo Bills defensive tackle, has earned the nickname 'ball hawk' after recording two interceptions in three weeks, including one against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 10. This marks a remarkable turnaround for Johnson, who had never intercepted a pass at any level before this season.
His recent performance ties him with New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner for career interceptions, highlighting the unusual achievement of a defensive lineman matching a highly regarded cornerback's turnover production. Both players will meet again in a pivotal Week 17 matchup.
