It is quite something that Deonte Banks made a game-sealing interception and en route to turning it into an emphatic pick-6, he reached a speed of 21.85 mph on his 98-yard return.
No ball carrier in the NFL has run faster than that this season, according to NextGen Stats.
The credit goes to Banks for this, of course, but also to John Harbaugh and the coaching staff surrounding Banks that helped make this jet-like rejuvenation possible.
“I think that’s a testament to coach Dennard Wilson and Harbs really instilling that confidence in him,’’ safety Jevón Holland told The Post, referring to the defensive coordinator and head coach. “They trust him and right behind them is us saying the same thing to him.’’
