New England Patriots wide receiver Kyle Williams found himself playing a little defense at Super Bowl LX.

In the fourth quarter of the Patriots' clash with the Seattle Seahawks, a shirtless fan ran onto the field and evaded security enough to reach the open field at Levi's Stadium. Normally, players just ignore field invaders unless the person enters their personal space.

Williams had other ideas, chasing down the man until he slid to the ground quarterback-style. A mob of security personnel proceeded to tackle him.

The man was arrested and later booked on charges of misdemeanor trespassing and field intrusion, a Santa Clara Police Department spokesman told TMZ.

Williams was a third-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft out of Washington State and posted 209 receiving yards and three touchdowns in his rookie year, along with 290 yards on 11 kickoff returns. 

In the NFL scouting combine, he ran a 4.40 40-yard dash, in case you were curious what kind of speed that fan had running behind him.

The play preceded some good fortune for the Patriots, who were down 19-0 at that point in what was so far one of the worst offensive performances in Super Bowl history. New England quarterback Drake Maye proceeded to hit wide receiver Mack Hollins for a 24-yard gain, then a 35-yard touchdown pass to ensure the Patriots wouldn't be the first team shut out in the Super Bowl.

The Seahawks won 29-13 to collect their second Super Bowl title in franchise history.
