Odell Beckham Jr shocks fans with amazing touchdown catch, VIDEO
Some are calling it the Greatest Football Catch of all time as New York Giants rookie wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. snagged a pass from Eli Manning against the Dallas Cowboys, despite a penalty from the Cowboy defender.
“Oh my goodness! This is sick — put this to music,” NBC’s Cris Collinsworth gushed on Sunday Night Football. “You have to be kidding me…That is absolutely impossible what he just did. That may be the greatest catch I’ve ever seen in my life.”
Beckham turned his back to the end zone, jumped and reached above (and behind) his head to grab the ball – with one hand. With only that one hand, Beckham held on to the ball and landed in the end zone. In fact, the different angles show he did this with just a couple of his fingers.
The response on twitter:
“Man I just witnessed the greatest catch ever possibly by Odell Beckham Jr! WOW !!!” – Lebron James, @kingjames
“INCREDIBLE!!! to that GRAB by @OBJ_3 simply one of the greatest grabs in a game I’ve have ever seen WOW” – Michael Irvin @michaelirvin88
The Cowboys narrowly won the night, winning 31-28.
