Malik Willis gets his "Welcome to the NFL" moment
You wanted to learn from the young guys, teach the young guys, learn from the old guys, teach the old guys. Oh, that's Willis wanted it and he's stopped by Matt Milano. What a quarter Milano is having, unbelievable. Everybody in Blue tonight. But he said that it really was about him paying it forward to other young people the same way it was paid forward to him by mentors like DeMarcus Ware. That's what he is bringing to this football.
Malik Willis and Derrick Henry Look Dangerous!
There was Trey Smith who knocked him on his backside. Fake to Henry, throw is complete down the field to Austin Hooper, the tight end. The receiver was in motion, it's second at six. Willis will pull it and keep it on the run; he did so much of this at Liberty. He's at the 36-yard line. From the 37-yard line, here is Henry to the left and there he goes, King Henry on the run. Derrick Henry to the 11-yard line. He will take the direct snap, and Henry will run it inside the five into the end zone for a touchdown, but there is a flag down. Willis went out. Did he get to the right spot when the quarterback left? There is no foul on the play. Ruling on the field is a touchdown.
