Rudy Ford, former Auburn standout, turns in career first half for Packers

Former Auburn standout free safety Rudy Ford has had some relatively quiet seasons in the NFL since he originally started his professional career with the Arizona Cardinals back in 2017, but the veteran posted a career first half in Sunday’s matchup between the Green Bay Packers and the Dallas Cowboys.

Through 2 quarters, Ford has been a force within the secondary, posting 3 solo tackles and 2 interceptions as the only player on the team in this game to pick off Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott as the two teams are tied at 14-14.
