Video: Former Bama LB Rolando McClain baits Ryan Tannehill into pick-six
Former Alabama All-American linebacker Rolando McClain is having quite a performance this afternoon in Miami.
During the second quarter against the Miami Dolphins, McClain faked a blitz and dropped into coverage, baiting quarterback Ryan Tannehill into a bad read.
McClain stepped in front of the underneath route, made an athletic interception and returned it 12 yards untouched for the touchdown:

That is first TD of Rolando McClain’s career and 1st defensive TD by the Cowboys since Anthony Spencer fumble return vs. Wash in Wk 17, 2014

Rolando McClain can be a lot to handle, but his football IQ is nuts. He showed that with a beautiful pick-6 just now. What a play #Cowboys

McClain was drafted in the first round by the Oakland Raiders in 2010 after earning the SEC’s Defensive Player of the Year honor.
