Halloween ended days ago. However, in New Jersey, it is still spooky season. Midway through the first half of the Dallas Cowboys' divisional tilt with the New York Giants, a black cat upheld the game.

Watch below. A black cat — who we will name Mittens for now — snuck onto the playing field of the Monday Night Football game. It stopped the process of the game. Even worse: those staffing the event had trouble getting Mittens (comment a better name below) off of the field, so it took a while to get him out.

If we were to give Mittens an impromptu scouting reporting, we would say it has around a third-round grade. The cons against Mittens are that it can kind of be distracting and size is just not NFL-ready. The pros? Look at that change of direction quickness. You can place it any position and they'd shake people off of their feet.

Good Mittens. Now let us watch football.
