Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive end Logan Hall had an outstanding performance on Thursday night despite his team’s heartbreaking 36-30 overtime loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Hall played a key role in Tampa Bay’s defensive efforts, recording two tackles and two sacks. His second sack of the game was particularly impressive, as it completely overwhelmed Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins, bringing him down for the third time in two games. Hall’s strong performance highlights his development as a pass rusher and his increasing influence on the Buccaneers’ defense.

Despite Hall’s monster play, the Buccaneers struggled to contain Kirk Cousins, who was having a career night. Cousins ​​threw for 509 yards, surpassing the 500-yard threshold for the first time in his career. This performance also surpassed his personal best of 460 yards, which he set two years ago. Cousins ​​set a new Falcons record for most passing yards in a single game, surpassing the previous mark of 503 yards set by Matt Ryan against the Carolina Panthers in 2016. Cousins’ efforts helped Atlanta win and overshadowed the Buccaneers’ defensive highlights, including Hall’s sacks.

With the loss, Tampa Bay moves to 2-2 this season as the Falcons improve their record in the highly competitive NFC South. Although the Buccaneers missed the chance for a road win, Logan Hall’s continued development as a playmaker gives hope for the future as he has now collected three sacks in the last two games. Hall’s performance will be crucial as Tampa Bay looks to recover and stay in playoff contention.
