Raiders cornerback Jack Jones made one of the coolest defensive plays of the year on "Thursday Night Football" in a 63-21 blowout win over the Chargers.

Already up 56-7 in the fourth quarter, Jones notched a leaping, one-handed interception on Chargers quarterback Easton Stick's pass which he returned for an easy 16-yard touchdown.

The score capped a stunning, bizarre Thursday night rout. Just four days earlier, Las Vegas lost 3-0 to Minnesota.

The Raiders scored nine touchdowns by eight different players, becoming the first team since the 1950 Rams to have that many players score a touchdown.

The defense forced five turnovers, including four fumble recoveries, one of which was returned for a touchdown by defensive tackle John Jenkins.

Jones' interception was his first of the season and second career pick-six. He was New England's fourth-round draft pick in the 2022 NFL Draft but was waived on Nov. 13, "less than two weeks after reportedly being disciplined for violating Patriots' curfew rules," per NFL.com.
The Raiders claimed him off waivers the following day.
