Former South Carolina State All-MEAC defender Cobie Durant had a historic performance in the Los Angeles Rams’ 27-9 Wild Card round win over the Minnesota Vikings.
Durant finished with an interception and a sack, each marking the first in his playoff career. This makes him the third player in Rams franchise history (and first since 1999) to record a sack and an interception in a playoff game.
In addition, Durant also became the first defensive back in Rams franchise history (and second in NFL history) to record a sack in a playoff game.
