When it seems like Puka Nacua can’t possibly get better than he already is, he makes a play like this one. The second-year receiver is already one of the best overall players in the NFL and the catch he made along the sideline against the Bills was one of the best you’ll see.
It came in the second quarter on second-and-10, somehow hauling in the deep ball for 19 yards near the sideline. It seemed impossible that he’d be able to get his feet down inbounds, but he managed to get it done and secure the catch.
Tom Brady, who’s on the call for FOX, couldn’t believe Nacua hauled it in.
“Oh my god! Insane. That’s ridiculous,” Brady said.
PUKA NACUA!
