(Radio Iowa) – Northwest Iowa native Cooper DeJean — starting cornerback on the Philadelphia Eagles — intercepted a pass in last night’s Super Bowl and returned it 38 yards for a touchdown. DeJean, who grew up in Odebolt, wore his high school letter jacket to the stadium. His interception came halfway through the second quarter. It was his first interception in the N-F-L — and it happened on his birthday. DeJean turned 22 on Sunday.
