DAVIE, Fla. -- One day opposing quarterbacks are going to stop throwing Xavien Howard's way, but the Miami Dolphins cornerback is happy that day hasn't come yet.
Howard made the play of the game in Sunday's 29-21 win against the Los Angeles Chargers. Early in the fourth quarter with the Chargers down six near midfield, Howard was playing zone coverage, respecting receiver Mike Williams' ability to go deep on third-and-long. He saw quarterback Justin Herbert lock in on Williams, who began to make a cut. It was go time for Howard, who made a split-second read, stopped abruptly and jumped the route for an interception.
