NFL World Reacts to Raiders’ Wild Walk-Off Touchdown

A wild Week 15 meeting between the Raiders and Patriots gave NFL fans one of the craziest finishes in recent memory on Sunday, courtesy of a game-winning defensive touchdown that has to be seen to be believed.

With the game tied 24–24 in the closing seconds, New England quarterback Mac Jones handed the ball off to running back Rhamondre Stevenson on third-and-10. Stevenson burst up the middle for 23 yards before opting to lateral the ball to receiver Jakobi Meyers as he was getting tackled to keep the play alive.

Meyers then ran a few yards in the opposite direction to avoid the Raiders’ defense before heaving the ball back to Jones. However, just as the ball reached the QB back near the line of scrimmage, Raiders defensive end Chandler Jones leaped into frame for a takeaway, hit Jones with a mean stiff-arm and proceeded to take the ball 48 yards to the house to secure an unbelievable victory for Las Vegas.
