Amari Cooper made the San Diego Chargers‘ lives a living hell with this amazing touchdown.

Oakland Raiders wide receiver Amari Cooper continues to look really impressive in his rookie season, as he took a short pass 52 yards to the end zone for a touchdown. He has four catches for 117 yards and a touchdown at halftime, and the Raiders are blowing out the San Diego Chargers on the road. Here is a video of this exciting touchdown catch by Cooper.

Cooper was drafted with the fourth overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft by the Raiders. He became a Heisman Trophy finalist in his final season at Alabama, and he has instantly emerged as quarterback Derek Carr’s favorite weapon. His speed and route running has been a valuable addition to a Raiders offense that lacked reliable weapons for Carr in his rookie season.

Carr is having himself a spectacular game with 215 passing yards on 17-of-22 passing with two touchdowns, and he continues to take good care of the ball as he only has three interceptions on the year. The Raiders are well on their way to improving their record to 3-3, assuming they can hold a 30-6 halftime lead. Meanwhile, Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers is not looking like his usual self, as he has thrown two interceptions.

The Chargers quarterback has failed to throw a touchdown pass so far, and the Chargers offense as a whole has sputtered throughout the game. Rookie running back Melvin Gordon has been on the sideline for the entire game, despite being ruled active following an ankle injury. Branden Oliver and Danny Woodhead have been unable to generate any offense, and the absence of tight end Antonio Gates may be hurting the Chargers as well.
