Grover Stewart’s Crucial Forced Fumble Leads to Kenny Moore II Touchdown in Colts-Vikings Game

In a pivotal moment during the Sunday Night Football game between the Indianapolis Colts and the Minnesota Vikings, Colts defensive tackle Grover Stewart made a significant impact. Stewart powered through the Vikings’ line, bowling over center Garrett Bradbury and then hitting quarterback Sam Darnold, causing a fumble.

The fumble was quickly scooped up by Colts cornerback Kenny Moore II, who dashed 38 yards to the end zone untouched, scoring the first touchdown of the game. This play occurred with 10:56 left in the second quarter, giving the Colts a 7-0 lead over the Vikings.

The score was initially in doubt after a flag was thrown for Stewart’s contact with Darnold’s helmet, but the officiating crew ultimately waved off the flag, allowing the call to stand.

This forced fumble also marked a notable milestone for the Colts, as it tied them with the Green Bay Packers for the NFL lead in forced fumbles with nine).
