Ravens score on pick-six vs. Deshaun Watson, Browns،
BALTIMORE — In a battle between the NFL’s two best defenses, the Baltimore Ravens flexed their muscles first.
On the second play of the game, Ravens blitzing safety Kyle Hamilton deflected a Deshaun Watson pass and returned the interception 18 yards for the touchdown. It was the first career touchdown and second interception for Hamilton, the No. 14 pick in the 2022 NFL Draft.
He tipped himself and brought it in 💪

It also ended Baltimore’s streak of 27 consecutive games without a defensive touchdown, the longest active streak in the NFL. The Ravens’ last defensive touchdown came in Week 17 of the 2021 season, when safety Chuck Clark had a pick six against the Los Angeles Rams.
It was an all-too-familiar moment for Cleveland. It was Watson’s second interception returned for a touchdown in two games with the Browns. This is the first time Watson has thrown multiple pick-sixes in a season since 2017 with the Texans, when he also threw two.
This game features two of the best defenses in the NFL. The Ravens lead the NFL in fewest points allowed, and the Browns lead the league in fewest yards allowed.
On the Ravens’ first drive, undrafted rookie running back Keaton Mitchell raced past the Browns defense for a 39-yard touchdown. This comes a week after Mitchell scored on a 40-yard touchdown run. In Mitchell’s first 10 carries of his NFL career, he totaled 178 yards, averaging 17.8 yards.
