Yes, this is my first post. Been lurking for a long time, but since I hadn't seen any comments on this, I wanted some clarification.

I would say yes, you are overly reading into it. He had an interception (nearly a pick 6), had a 1/2 sack, and was used in coverage a ton. I thought he was one of the big reason why Hockenson had limited production through the first 3.5 quarters.
Also, that Miss St. defense was LOADED with talent. Would have loved to see what Gay would have done this past season after much of that defense went to the NFL.
