Buccaneers' defender intercepted Mac Jones, then forgot how his feet work image

Kindle Vildor did what should've been the hard part quite easily.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers' defensive back jumped a passing lane to intercept Mac Jones during the first quarter on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 6.

Vildor caught the ball no problem, and all he saw in front of him was green grass.

But then Vildor fumbled, seemingly foiling a potential pick-six.

But what, Vildor got up. He still had space. He could still do it.

And then he fell again.

This time, Vildor stayed down and let himself be contacted down.

The Buccaneers made it all work out in the end. They capped off the ensuing drive with a Rachaad White rushing touchdown.

Vildor surely would've liked the TD himself, but it all works out the same for the Bucs.

This was only the second interception of Vildor's career. He hasn't brought one back to the end zone yet.

Maybe the next time Vildor jumps a passing lane for a pick, he'll remember how to sprint to the end zone.
