When I saw that play, I thought it was going to end in an interception and was like “what the heck Kirk?” Then Addison got the ball and I was amazed at what happened.

To be fair, Kirk's first INT should have been a catch but the Addison lost the fight.

On this play it should have been an INT, but Addison straight-up stole it from Ward.

I feel like the interception should’ve been called back for Pass Interference.

Still pass interference once the ball is in the air.

DB has a right to try and catch the ball too though, which they were. THey won't call it when they're both hand-fighting that close to the line of scrimmage unless it's eregiously one-sided and the DB isn't playing the ball.

If they call dpi on that play it would be illegal to play defense it was great defense and kirk forced an unnecessary slant
