Watch: Raiders defenders play volleyball on two incredible interceptions

Lamar Jackson had somewhat of a rough first half on Sunday in which he threw two interceptions, but both were the result of incredible plays by Raiders defenders.

Both of Jackson’s picks came on tipped balls. The first went right through the hands of two Oakland players before a third snagged it out of the air.

Believe it or not, that interception wasn’t nearly as impressive as the second. With the Ravens leading 13-10 and looking to tack on more points late in the first half, Jackson threw a deep pass down the sideline that was intended for Michael Crabtree. Oakland cornerback Gareon Conley tipped the ball in the air, and it somehow stayed in bounds for teammate Marcus Gilchrist to intercept it in the end zone.

We’ve seen plenty of incredible interceptions already this season, but those were easily two of the best. In a year where hardly anything has gone right for the Raiders, that was a welcome sight.
