DeSean Jackson decided to throw his hat into the ring on Sunday for the NFL’s best catch of the week, and it was a beauty.
DeSean Jackson looked just like Willie Mays with over-the-shoulder catch
There’s only one “Say Hey Kid,” though.
Washington is playing the Philadelphia Eagles, and Kirk Cousins floated a pass that Jackson nearly lost, but ended up making a catch that was truly spectacular against his former team.
It resembled Willie Mays’ catch from Game 1 of the 1954 World Series.
Of course, nothing beats the original. It was still great, though.
Jay Gruden had a similar idea after the game:
The Nationals might need him next season, who knows!
