The Seattle Seahawks may have lost to the New Orleans Saints in Week 5, but rookie cornerback Tariq Woolen continues to impress.

After a pick-six a week ago, Woolen managed four tackles, one pass defended, one interception and also forced a fumble.

The fifth-round pick continues to turn heads, and leaves many wondering how he managed to fall all the way down to Round 5 of the draft.
