In the second day of rookie minicamp on Saturday, Detroit Lions first-round pick and cornerback, Terrion Arnold, grabbed his first interception during team drills.

Donning his No. 0, Arnold was in coverage on a pass down the field when he turned his head at the perfect time and picked it off. The pass was intended for No. 88, but there is nobody currently listed on the Lions' roster with that number.

Whatever the case may be, it was Arnold's first pick of rookie minicamp — and hopefully the first of many more to come during his career.

Arnold's minicamp has been impressive so far. Beat writers on the ground raved about his swagger and burst on Day 1, as we touched on in our takeaways from rookie minicamp on Friday.

Arnold also had the quote of the day, saying that he would jam his own mother at the line of scrimmage if he was going against her one-on-one.

"I'll never forget one time my mom kicked my tooth out because we was just going at it so hard so if my mom was out here right now and she lined up across me as a receiver, I would jam her into the dirt," Arnold said, per ESPN's Eric Woodyard.

"That's my mindset and my mom knows that right now. I just mean it in the simple aspect of like football-wise, that's just the way that I think and the way that I was brought up."

The Lions are on the practice field for the second day of rookie minicamp on Saturday and are slated to be back out there for the final day on Sunday.
