Philadelphia Eagles rookie safety Sydney Brown will head into the 2024 new year on a high note. 

In the second quarter of the Eagles' New Year's Eve matchup against the Arizona Cardinals, Brown picked off quarterback Kyler Murray and ran the ball 99 yards for a touchdown. 

It's Brown's first pick-six of his career.

His 99-yard pick-sick is also the longest for the Eagles since safety Malcolm Jenkins intercepted Tom Brady for a 99-yard touchdown in 2015, according the NBC Sports' Dave Zangaro. 

The Eagles selected Brown in the third round (66th overall) out of Illinois in the 2023 NFL Draft.
