Las Vegas Raiders cornerback Jack Jones played a trick on a young Kansas City Chiefs fan on Christmas Day.
Jones had just intercepted Patrick Mahomes in the second quarter and returned the ball in the end zone as he ran toward the stands.
He ran to the barrier separating the players from the crowd Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium seems to want to give the ball to a young fan. But he didn't, he pulled the pig skin back with him.
It was the second straight game with a turnover for Mahomes, and the second straight game in which Las Vegas had taken advantage of an error by the Chiefs quarterback and resulted in a defensive touchdown.
Jones stared at Mahomes as he crossed the goal line, and then the memorable possession occurred.

The defensive touchdowns occurred seven seconds apart.
The Raiders defeated the Chiefs 20-14, in a game in which Las Vegas did not score an offensive touchdown.
The loss kept the Chiefs from securing a playoff berth as they fell to 9–6. The win kept the Raiders' playoff hopes alive at 7-8.
Last week, Jones told the media he thought Mahomes was the catalyst for Kansas City's success. He added that if the Raiders could take Mahomes' magic away, they could win.
'We're not worried about them. It's Patrick Mahomes we have to stop, said the wizard Jones. “If you stop the wizard, the action is over.”
Jones played a crucial role in making that statement a reality and ruined a young Chiefs fans day in the process.
