Q. Ja'Marcus, a couple of interceptions, you're the first UB player to record two interception in an NFL game, one of them a pick six. Can you reflect on the big performance and the whirlwind of the last two weeks being thrust into action?

JA'MARCUS INGRAM: Oh, man, it's a blessing to be in this position, but I would say really just my mindset. You know, every week and every day coming in preparing and telling myself, you know, that I be in position to make plays.

I'll be in position to make that play whenever that play comes. I just always tell myself that.

Q. Is a night like tonight everything you ever dreamed of?

JA'MARCUS INGRAM: Yes, you know what I'm saying? It's a feeling that I don't even got words to describe.

Q. The second one could you believe that it was coming to you on that play?

JA'MARCUS INGRAM: Nah, I couldn't. I was just doing any job, you know, and it just fell right out the sky.

Q. What happened on this play? What exactly did happen there?

JA'MARCUS INGRAM: It looked like our D-line, they was rushing, you know what I'm saying, real good and got him off the spot, and he just threw it away. Looked like he was trying to throw it away and I was running to the ball and caught it and took it to the crib.

Q. Sean mentioned after the game against Arizona that you may not have even been up that day if it weren't for the injury.

JA'MARCUS INGRAM: Uh-huh.

Q. To go from that to playing such a central role in two wins in the span of five days, just what goes through your mind?

JA'MARCUS INGRAM: It's a lot, you know, especially getting told that I might not be up. But my mindset is preparing like I'm going to play, like I'm going to start no matter what. But it's still things that I feel and it's a lot to, you know, be able to step up in those moments.

The fact that they got faith in me to be able to do that is just a blessing to be a part of this organization that I can step up in those moments and make plays.

Q. What's the support been like from your teammates? Talking about the journey, but that sideline was insane.

JA'MARCUS INGRAM: Yeah.

Q. What was that like?

JA'MARCUS INGRAM: Like I said, I don't even really got the words to describe it, but I know I got a group of teammates that love me and I love them as well.

You know, I can't be more blessed and thankful for the organization that I play for and my teammates, just the position that I'm in.

Q. Walk us through the first interception as well. Was it just right place, right time?

JA'MARCUS INGRAM: Yeah, just doing my job and CB made a hell of a play on the ball. You know, just running to the ball, I was able to come up with that one, so...
