Watch: Rookie CB Steven Gilmore comes down with an excellent INT

There wasn’t much in the way of Detroit Lions highlights in the first quarter of Saturday’s preseason contest with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Undrafted rookie cornerback Steven Gilmore made sure the Lions had a fun won, however.

Gilmore, starting on the outside as the Lions rested all the regular starters, made an impressive interception off a savvy deflection from safety Tracy Walker. C.J. Beathard’s throw was initially set to be picked off by Walker, who ranged over the top beautifully.

Jaguars wideout Kevin Austin made a nice play to prevent Walker from cleanly catching it, but Gilmore was right there to clean up the play and make the takeaway.

Gilmore had a nice end zone pass breakup on the prior series too, nicely recovering after getting beaten on a long pass play on the same drive.
