Nostalgia Reis' role in the Ambush play featured in story on unlikely Super Bowl heroes (14 Viewers)

[St.Dan]

Chris Reis, now a pastor in Youngsville, outside of Lafayette, says the special teams always practiced it to have Roman Harper recover the ball. Describes the action at the bottom of the pile as a "madhouse."

Some other good sections, too, on a few other obscure Super Bowl heroes.

Thanks for sharing the article St.Dan.
It's a really good read and takes you right back to that unbelievable play on that momentous day.

It is without a doubt one for the ages. God bless Chris Reis.

Really interesting how certain players only have one critical performance in their careers, but that performance is unbelievably memorable. Brian Milne. Steve Gleason (memorialized with a statue!). IIRC, Reis was the Defensive Player of the Year in NFLE, but few recall that.
