Hunter Renfrow has a reputation for doing many of the “little things” very well. He proved that on Monday night.
The Los Angeles Chargers had a fourth-and-12 at the Raiders' 41 late in the first quarter of “Monday Night Football.” The Chargers decided to attempt a fake punt. They likely would have converted if not for Renfrow’s awareness.
Renfrow, who was back as the returner for the Raiders, spotted the fake coming.

What a freaking hit. If not for that, the Chargers likely would have maintained possession.
Renfrow, 25, was a fifth-round pick by the Raiders in 2019. The Clemson product has 121 catches for 1,465 yards and seven touchdowns in his NFL career, in addition to his punt-returning duties. His special teams hits are a bonus.
