Former Florida TE Lucas Krull scores first career TD in 4Q of Broncos-Patriots game
Former Florida Gator Lucas Krull finally has a touchdown in a Denver Bronco uniform. During the Christmas Eve game against the Patriots, Russell Wilson delivered him the perfect holiday gift.
Wilson took the snap and floated back and to the right as he maneuvered the pocket, eluding a pass rusher and using a sort of side-arm angle to sling a pass towards Krull in the end zone. He wins the ball with a contested catch that not only scores his first career touchdown but also got the Broncos back within one possession in the fourth quarter.
Take a look at the grab:
Christian Barmore shines for Denver
The New England Patriots put together an incredible third quarter against the Denver Broncos on Sunday night, and former Alabama star Christian Barmore was a big reason why.
Barmore sacked Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson three times during the third quarter to help turn a 7-3 halftime deficit into a 23-7 lead entering the fourth quarter.
Christian Barmore started off the third quarter with a sack on the first play from scrimmage and didn’t slow down.
Later in the third quarter, he sacked Russell Wilson on third-and-12 to force a punt.
Finally, Barmore sacked Wilson on the final play of the third quarter and forced a fumble in the process.
Christian Barmore is in his third season in New England after being drafted by the Broncos out of Alabama in the second round of the 2021 NFL draft.
Barmore entered Sunday’s game with 40 tackles and 5.5 sacks on the season.
Prior to making plays in the NFL, he was incredibly disruptive at Alabama. During his senior season, Barmore recorded 37 tackles and led the Crimson Tide with eight sacks. He was named the Defensive MVP of the national championship game after making five tackles, including two tackles for loss.
He was named an All-American that year and received first-team All-SEC honors.
