The New Orleans Saints’ defense picked up late in their game with the Carolina Panthers, especially on this play as Shemar Jean-Charles ripped the ball away from rookie Xavier Legette for an interception. Legette had all but caught and tucked away the pass, but Jean-Charles was able to get his hands between the ball and the receiver, pulling the ball away for himself instead and giving the Saints possession back.
In a game where the cornerback group is pretty much completely new aside from Alontae Taylor due to injuries, they needed someone to step up if they were to have a chance on defense. The preseason standout Jean-Charles was one such player, making an exceptional play on the defensive end in his first career start.
