BC Lions’ defensive back Robert Carter Junior highlighted the reels throughout the continent on Sunday night when he caught that CFL could certainly be considered the biggest interception in history.
The play took place near the end of the first half when Hamilton Quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell tried to thread the needle to the seam to receive Brendon O’Lery-Orange in the end region. Carter closed the difference with a jump, stabbed the football with his left hand, pulled it into his body, and rolled with turf, the ground survived.

The drama was similar to a curter while playing with the collegium at the University of Robert Morris, who saw that he was making a hand interception between 360 degrees spin. The crook defender told 3downnnation The postgame felt that his collegiat interception was better than this latest for an interesting reason.
He said, “I would definitely say that Robert Morris is still much better, especially because I had a broken hand,” he said with laughter.
BC Lions (3-5) are entering their first goodbye week of the season after suffering 37–33 to Hamilton Tiger-Cat on Sunday night.
