The Green Bay Packers were driving down the field to potentially gain the lead over the Detroit Lions on “Monday Night Football.” However, that wouldn't happen under cornerback Justin Coleman's watch.
Coleman, a well-paid (and deserving), slot cornerback, pulled in a clutch interception in the fourth quarter on Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers intended to throw the ball to wide receiver Darrius Shepherd. That wouldn't happen under Coleman's watch.
Shepherd couldn't reel in the pass at the goal line, and Coleman made a play on it. The cornerback picked it up in mid-air, then proceeded to weave his way around traffic for a 56-yard return.

The Lions weren't able to turn Coleman's game-changing interception into a touchdown, however. Detroit had to settle for a Matt Prater field goal, which would put the score at 22-19. On the next drive, Rodgers and Co. drove the field for a touchdown.
