The Cleveland Browns are getting the fireworks rolling. After Deshaun Watson hit Amari Cooper for a massive gain to get them on the board first, the defense stepped up big against the Arizona Cardinals. On the next defensive possession, cornerback Denzel Ward came up with a massive interception against rookie quarterback Clayton Tune.
The vaunted Cleveland defense has made the debut of Tune extremely hard on the rookie quarterback. Through the first 25 minutes of this game, Tune sits with just 18 yards on 4-of-7 passing for the Cardinals as they sit with a 10-0 deficit.
There are not many, if any, cornerbacks playing better football than Ward is for the Browns right now. The Cleveland defense has been one of the best in the league, and the play of their Pro Bowl cornerback has been a big reason why. This interception led to a Cleveland touchdown as the Browns moved the football straight down the field.
