Bilal Powell's 75-yard touchdown run is pretty incredible
New York Jets running back Bilal Powell‘s 75-yard touchdown run Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars gets the early nod for strangest touchdown of the week.
Powell was tripped up on a sweep play, either by a teammate or by his own doing, only to have the entire Jaguars defense stop and assume the play was over.
Powell, to his credit, never heard a whistle and kept running.
After a review by the officials, the play stood, making it 7-7 and easily earning Powell the longest play of his seven-year career (his previous best was a 39-yard run in 2013). The 28-year-old finished the game with a career-high 163 yards on 21 carries. The Jets moved to 2-2 with their 23-20 overtime win.
