If Vegas put odds on the first player to secure Arizonaβs first sack of the season on defense, bets probably wouldβve been placed on linebackers Paul Magloire or DeAndreβ Miller, maybe a blitzing safety such as Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles and Tellas Jones, or even a defensive linemen, like Sani Fuimaono or Luca Bruno.
That's not what happened.
On a third down play in the first quarter, Arizonaβs first sack came from β¦ linebacker Carrington Vaughn.
Vaughn is a walk-on redshirt freshman linebacker from Pittsburgh who playing in the first college game of his career. Heβs listed at 5 feet 11 inches and 214 pounds.
