Falcons’ Jessie Bates with 92-yard pick-six of Derek Carr pass

The Atlanta Falcons secondary found early redemption after giving up long passes to Chris Olave and Taysom Hill.

The New Orleans Saints’ Derek Carr went to the air one time too many and his pass wound up in the hands of Jessie Bates.

Ninety-two yards later, the Falcons had a 7-3 lead after the pick-six and PAT.

Carr was 8-for-12 for 129 passing yards but the interception wiped out all the positives.
