Ward had his revenge though, getting a pick six on the very next drive for his second interception of the quarter. 

The eventful first quarter was certainly long overdue for Ward, who hadn't had a pick since the 2016 season.

"Oh it was great," Ward told reporters after the game. "Man I feel great. I don't even have words to say about it. I guess that I can enjoy it for like 24 hours and then it's onto next week. Jacksonville is coming up. We have to go on the road and get this win.
