Cincinnati Bengals defensive back Vonn Bell moved into a tie for the National Football League lead in interceptions this season with four when he picked off Cleveland Browns receiver Amari Cooper’s first NFL pass attempt on a failed trick play during the first quarter of the Monday Night Football game in Cleveland.

“We like to leave that to the quarterbacks for the most part,” ESPN analyst Troy Aikman joked about Cooper’s pass, which was right to Bell.

Bell entered the season with just two career interceptions in his first six NFL seasons. He had one interception in 2021, his first season with the Bengals.

Amari Cooper pulls a Zach Wilson and throws it right to Vonn Bell.

The Bengals get bailed out by an awful decision on a reverse pass.

A terrible decision by the Browns. Vonn Bell picks off Amari Cooper on the reverse.

Literally gift wrapped that one to Vonn
