KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Former Utah State linebacker Bobby Wagner was in the right place at the right time to intercept Patrick Mahomes in the second quarter of Monday Night Football.

It goes further than that, though.

His last interception came nearly three years ago on December 25, 2022, when he played for the Los Angeles Rams.

Still, even at 35 years old, Wagner doesn’t need interceptions to leave an impact. After MNF, he will be second in the NFL in total tackles.

Through the first seven games of the season, Wagner has posted 73 total tackles (33 solo).
