After Odell Beckham Jr. had just gotten done scoring and having an awesome celebration, he was tasked with defending the Bengals’ Hail Mary attempt at the end of the first half.
Odell Beckham Jr. defended this Hail Mary like a soccer defender
Though it may not have been his intention.


Beckham is a great guy to have out there in that scenario. He’s got some of the best hands in the NFL, and when the opposition is equipped with a receiver as dangerous as A.J. Green, you have to do what you can to keep the ball out of his hands.
As a result, Beckham actually helped defend it well, it just went off of his head:
Beckham didn’t come down with the catch, but he did his part, and that’s all that matters.
Perhaps he should take up soccer, since he was so effective in using his head.
