Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed had fans and analysts scratching their heads on Sunday after making a ridiculous catch against the Los Angeles Rams. Reed, who has been a consistent target for quarterback Jordan Love this season, hauled in a 53-yard pass despite being double-covered and with another Ram defender hot on his heels.
“F*ck it Reed down there somewhere,” Reed wrote on X, sharing his disbelief over the play.
The reception highlights the growing trust between Love and Reed, who is in his second year in the league. The catch was just one highlight in a stellar performance for the versatile receiver, who finished the game with 78 receiving yards.
Reed has been a force for the Packers this season, already surpassing his rookie year numbers. He currently sits at 414 receiving yards and two touchdowns, as well as 110 rushing yards and a touchdown. His performance on Sunday made him the first player since 1985 to record over 400 receiving yards and 100 rushing yards through the first five games of a season.
The Packers’ victory over the Rams improved their record to 3-2, bouncing back from last week’s loss to the Minnesota Vikings. They’ll return to Green Bay next week to face the Arizona Cardinals.
