In the same game, Woodaz showcased his skills by making an impressive interception of a pass thrown by Fernando Mendoza, which he returned for a touchdown covering 80 yards. As a fourth-round rookie, he is projected to be the primary backup at middle linebacker behind Azeez Al-Shaair as the regular season nears.
