While Tom Brady is considered one of the most talented NFL players in history, the beloved quarterback still takes the time to give other players flowers. On November 13, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson made waves during the team’s game against the Buffalo Bills. At the end of the final quarter, the Louisiana native shocked fans when he performed a one-handed 32-yard catch –– delivering a touchdown that helped the Vikings secure an exhilarating 33-30 overtime victory.
According to ESPN, the team had only a 6% chance of taking the game before the show-stopping play. In the days following the history-making catch, fans and industry professionals praised Jefferson, including Brady. “A one-handed catch in coverage. Fourth and 18. On the road. End up winning the game. That has got to be one of the greatest catches in NFL history,” the Tampa Buccaneers player said during his “Let’s Go!” podcast.
Brady wasn’t the only NFL legend to comment on Jefferson’s amazing play. Former Vikings player Sammy White also described it as “one of the greatest catches” he’s ever seen. “The way his body was laid out and to come down on his back, that was sensational,” he said (via Star Tribune). “You will have a few that qualify as the [greatest catch ever], but that one is going to be right up there with them.” Football broadcaster and former NFL player Louis Riddick echoed similar sentiments, tweeting: “The young man is a terminator.”
