Alabama Football: Crimson Tide in the NFL Week 18

Xavier McKinney has a career day in Giants win over the Eagles

The Giants shocked the Philadelphia Eagles with the Eagles playing for the NFC East thanks in a major part to Xavier McKinney. McKinney with a contract decision looming recorded two picks with one being Bama on Bama crime as he picked off Jalen Hurts on a pass intended for Julio Jones. McKinney's first interception was one of the more impressive interceptions of the season while his second interception showed his play recognition and intelligence. A'Shawn Robinson recorded two tackles in the game with one for a loss. On the losing side, the Eagles were without Alabama Football star Devonta Smith but, Julio Jones had two catches for 13 yards.

Tua Tagovailoa and the Dolphins limped to the finish line to end the season and as a result, they lost the AFC East on Sunday Night. Tua went 17-27 for 173 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions. The Alabama Football alum finished the season with 4,451 yards which was the best in the league. The Dolphins certainly missed Jaylen Waddle who missed the game with an injury.
