Watch: Micah Hyde lays out for diving, touchdown-saving interception

Micah Hyde came ready to play.

The Bills' second-team All-Pro safety made one of the best plays by a defensive back this season in Saturday's playoff battle with the Patriots. When New England quarterback Mac Jones dropped back on first down midway through the first quarter, he quickly saw Nelson Agholor streaking down the left sideline having beaten his man.

It looked on the broadcast as though Agholor was going to walk into an easy score, but Hyde quickly appeared on the screen. He dove forward right as the ball was about to settle into Agholor's hands, picking off what would have been an equalizing touchdown and falling into the end zone for a safety.

Hyde intercepted five passes during the regular season, tying his career high. He's picked off 14 throws over his five years in Buffalo since signing with the Bills as a free agent in 2017 after leaving Green Bay.
