SEC football: Top Five players in 2019 NFL Conference Championships
Reggie Ragland comes in at the number three spot on this list for playing an incredible game on Sunday.
He recorded 12 total tackles, seven solo, five assists, and one interception. Ragland was the second leading tackler for the Chiefs behind Daniel Sorensen.
The Alabama alumni can say he intercepted a ball from Tom Brady and that is something not a lot of defenders can say. He caught the first interception of the game in the end zone as the Patriots attempted to go up 14-0 on the Chiefs.
Ragland had the tall task to slow down the Patriots running game. Of his 12 tackles, six of them came from tackling Michel. Five more of his tackles were on Burkhead. Eleven of his 12 tackles were on two opposing players. Ragland stayed busy between those two and got well acquainted with both of them.
The 6-2 252 pound linebacker seemed to be in on every play and helped Kansas City avoid some big plays.
Ragland did everything he could for the Chiefs defense. He flew all over the field, dropped back in coverage and appeared to be a one-person defense for the Chiefs many times during the game. Any way he could make a play for the Chiefs he seemed to try to on Sunday.
