The key block (or two)

Last but certainly not least is the biggest play of the day, and again, Dillon deserves a ton of credit for making multiple tacklers miss and staying in bounds. But don’t lose sight of the block by Valdes-Scantling on S Quandre Diggs (6). This is an incredibly smart play by Valdes-Scantling. With his body facing the opposite end zone, he’s in danger of getting flagged for an illegal blindside block if he throws a shoulder into Diggs. So instead, he keeps his hands and arms down and simply runs interference, standing tall with his chest to essentially let Diggs run into him. Clean play, big gain.
