Waynes, Newman, Johnson Intercept Newton in Vikings Win

A Vikings veteran and his protégé each nabbed an interception off Panthers quarterback Cam Newton on Sunday.

Cornerback Terence Newman’s third-quarter pick extended a streak of 14 straight seasons with an interception and was the 41st of his career.

Trae Waynes, a 2015 first-round pick, snagged an interception off Newton late in the first half. It was his second straight game with a pick, and third in four games (including last season’s Wild Card game against Seattle).

The pair of picks were part of a three-interception day for the Vikings, who moved to 3-0 on the season with a 22-10 win over the Panthers.
