Six NFL ambassadors are taking part in a week-long trip through Italy and Germany to visit U.S. Troops stationed overseas and former Alabama running back Mark Ingram is part of that group.

As the players make their way through Italy, Ingram got talked into letting an Italian security dog chase him down. As you'll see in the video below shared by Marc Sessler of the NFL Network, not only does the dog launch itself into Ingram but it takes him down in such a way that it looks like a horse collar tackle.

 

Ingram also took a minute to explain the tackle and how he even got into that situation.

Ingram, Alabama's first Heisman winner, enjoyed one of his best seasons last year with the New Orleans Saints. He finished 2017 as the fifth-leading rusher in the NFL with 1,124 yards and helped the Saints win the NFC South.
