Kevin Durant and James Harden React to NFL Star’s Incredible Interception That Steered the Eagles to 6-0

The NFL’s Week 6 ‘Sunday Night Football’ wrapped up with some exciting results. The Philadelphia Eagles steered clear of the Dallas Cowboys with a 26-17 win at Lincoln Financial Field. However, possibly the biggest highlight of the game was Darius Slay’s insane interception.

The Eagles forced a turnover due to the interception and went on to win the game. Former teammates at the Brooklyn Nets, NBA All-Stars Kevin Durant and James Harden seemed to enjoy the play from Darius Slay and reacted to it on Twitter.

The Philadelphia Eagles managed to stop Cowboys’ QB Cooper Rush throughout the game. He was intercepted twice, with the second one being snagged by Darius Slay. It was truly an iconic play and gave the Eagles an advantage during the game. Slay then gave the ball to rapper Meek Mill, who was in attendance.
