Seahawks OT Garry Gilliam catches touchdown pass on fake field goal (Video)
By Mike Dyce
Seattle Seahawks offensive tackle Garry Gilliam caught a touchdown pass in the NFC Championship game for a fat man TD.
The Seattle Seahawks are trailing the Green Bay Packers in the NFC Championship game and their offense is struggling to get anything going. That has the Seahawks digging deep into their playbook to try and find creative ways to score.
After an inexplicable pass to a wide open to Doug Baldwin to get a first down on third-and-19, when the Packers dropped eight men into coverage, the dialed up a trick play.
They line up to kick a field goal and the holder took the snap and ran out towards the sideline. Meanwhile, offensive tackle Garry Gilliam, who weighs all of 306 pounds, went deep into the end zone and caught the touchdown pass.
That means a fat guy touchdown! Which everyone loves because who doesn’t love seeing those guys get into the end zone.
