People, Jake Bobo is garnering nationwide consideration.
The Seattle Seahawks undrafted rookie broad receiver stepped up large in DK Metcalf’s absence, with 4 catches for 61 yards and this unbelievable landing seize in opposition to the Arizona Cardinals. It doesn’t look bodily attainable to make this catch and get each ft inbounds, however something is feasible with Jake Bobo.
It’s nice safety by the offensive line, a unbelievable throw by Geno Smith, and an outstanding effort by Bobo with Starling Thomas draped throughout him. The catch itself was spectacular, however the footwork rivals his landing in opposition to the Carolina Panthers.
Initially, this was dominated incomplete, however Pete Carroll challenged the decision and he was victorious. Dean Blandino explains why Bobo’s catch, and a equally unbelievable play by Puka Nucua had been each dominated as accomplished passes.

“If any a part of the foot hits out of bounds throughout the regular technique of taking a step then the foot is out of bounds,” Blandino mentioned. “In each of those conditions, they weren’t taking a standard step.”
“If there’s a drag or delay, like there was in each of those conditions, if any a part of the foot hits inbounds first then that will put that foot inbounds.”
This isn’t fairly the identical play or dynamic, however there was a contact of “Russell Wilson to Tyler Lockett within the 2019 Rams recreation” to this landing. The NFL not solely had Bobo’s catch as the perfect play of Week 7, Subsequent Gen Stats says that is essentially the most unbelievable landing of the whole season.
You like to see it. I’ve been ready virtually 20 years for one more Joe Jurevicius kind of receiver on this offense once more, and Bobo’s coaching camp and preseason play has translated into some vastly essential common season moments.
