Lloyd joined an elite group with his 99-yard pick-six.
In NFL history, there have been just 63 interception returns of 99 yards or more, with only 37 coming since 2000. The most recent before Lloyd was Denver’s Patrick Surtain, who went 100 yards last season.
Most notably, Lloyd is the only linebacker ever to accomplish the feat.
