Josh Jobe secured a late-game interception to preserve a 13-10 victory for the Seattle Seahawks against the New England Patriots on September 9, 2026. With less than a minute remaining in the fourth quarter, Jobe intercepted a pass from Drake Maye near the end zone at Lumen Field. The Patriots were within field goal range, which would have forced a tie, but the turnover ended the threat and finalized the score. This sequence marked a significant defensive play for Jobe, who has recently seen an increased role in the Seahawks secondary. Statistics indicate that such a late-game interception by a trailing team within the 20-yard line is a rarity in the NFL. The last comparable instance involved Kyler Murray in 2021, emphasizing the unconventional nature of the decision by the Patriots quarterback.
