Utah’s Darrin Paulo might have had the catch of the day, and he’s an offensive lineman

Please feast your eyes on this specimen of a touchdown by lineman Darrin Paulo.

Paulo checks in at 6’6” and 312 pounds, and the young man catches this ball with the deft soft hands of Odell Beckham Jr.. Sometimes good things just happen to you, and Paulo was at the right place at the right time. Johnny on the spot catching from a seated position.

Or perhaps, it’s more of a Julian Edelman. His catch in the Super Bowl is strikingly similar as both men hoped against hope that the ball wouldn’t hit the ground, and it almost did.

Typically, linemen don’t get scoop and score fumbles. When they do catch the ball, it’s usually a fluke when and it ends in a yakety sax version of a lineman trying to scramble and gain yards. That ain’t Paulo’s gag though. He looks the ball in and holds on for dear life. Nice hands, my man.
