In a season full of highlights, there’s one Grant Delpit covets most of all.
Of course, there aren’t many more plays Delpit could make in 2018 that he hasn’t already. In 12 games, Delpit has 73 tackles, 9.5 for loss, 5 sacks, 5 interceptions, 9 passes defended, and a forced fumble.
That sort of production is, quite literally, unprecedented. According to Sports Reference data, the list of players 5 sacks, 5 interceptions, and a forced fumble since 2000 is quite short.
It’s Grant Delpit, and nobody else.
“He can rush, cover, play man-to-man,” says head coach Ed Orgeron.
