Levi Wallace's incredible story took another turn over the weekend. 

The former University of Alabama walk-on played a pivotal role in the Buffalo Bills' 17-3 win over the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Divisional Round. 

He recorded six tackles, three of which were solo stops, and one sack against the Ravens on his way to earning Bama Central Crimson Tide Pro Athlete of the Week honors. 

Wallace's sack of Lamar Jackson, which resulted in a loss of 11 yards, came on Baltimore's opening possession and paved the way for the Bills to keep the visitors out of the end zone all night. 

It was also his first sack of the season.

Now, Wallace and the Bills will face the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday evening in the AFC Championship Game at Arrowhead Stadium at 5:40 p.m (CT).
