Cardinals’ Calais Campbell destroys Washington lineman to force fumble

Shawn Lauvao, meet Calais Campbell.

He’s the one barrelling into you and pushing you back into the face of your own quarterback.

Campbell, the Arizona Cardinals defensive lineman, came up huge at University of Phoenix Stadium on Sunday when his team needed him most.

Just after Arizona kicker Chandler Catanzaro missed a 53-yard field goal with the Cardinals trailing 13-10, Campbell excavated Lauvao from his left guard spot and stripped Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins of the ball.

Cardinals teammate Markus Golden recovered the fumble and returned it to the Washington 10-yard line. Arizona would make it worthwhile as Carson Palmer hit Michael Floyd for a touchdown to put the Cardinals ahead, 17-13.
