The Eagles scored the first touchdown of the Super Bowl, and it was a beautiful toss from Nick Foles to Alshon Jeffery.
Alshon Jeffery makes an unbelievable leaping catch for 1st TD of Super Bowl 52
This was a leaping beauty.
Jeffery had Eric Rowe on him, who has been playing over Malcolm Butler for the beginning of the game, as he has been battling an illness.
This was the perfect toss and grab:
The drive was a quick one for the Eagles — it took just three plays, and went 77 yards in just under two minutes.
After hitting Nelson Agholor for a seven-yard pass, the Eagles got a big boost from former New England Patriot LeGarrette Blount, who went up the middle for a 36-yard rush.
The Eagles then took their shot, where Jeffery came down. It was also a great start for him, after guaranteeing a Super Bowl victory.
The Eagles would miss the extra point, and went up 9-3 as opposed to 10-3 late in the first quarter.
