The Minnesota Vikings’ historic comeback Week 15 win over the Indianapolis Colts was made even more remarkable by the fact that Vikings cornerback Chandon Sullivan had two fumble return touchdowns called back. One was reversed by an incorrect down by contact call, but it was the first that is especially interesting for our present purposes.
With 7:03 left in the first half, and the Colts already up 23-0, Indianapolis quarterback Matt Ryan threw a short pass to receiver Michael Pittman, who fumbled at the Indianapolis 40-yard line. At that point, Sullivan picked the ball up and rumbled for a touchdown.
