Jarvis Landry imitates David Tyree and makes Colts defense look silly (Video)
By Mark Powell
Jarvis Landry has the best hands in the league
The Browns wideout made Colts defender Bobby Okereke look silly in the first half of this matchup between 3-1 teams. Landry made a catch similar to that of former New York Giants wide receiver David Tyree in the Super Bowl, in which he pinned the ball to Okereke’s helmet for a first down.
First downs could be tough to come by against the Colts, who ranked as one of the best defenses in the NFL so far this season. The DeForest Buckner trade has done wonders to their defensive line, allowing the Colts secondary to flourish behind a consistent pass rush.
Landry doesn’t care about your rankings
Landry is often overlooked in this Browns system because of the emergence of all the weapons around him. Odell Beckham, Jr. is one of the more eccentric wideouts in the league. Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt make for arguably the best running back duo in the NFL when healthy. Austin Hooper is a high-priced tight end for a reason. Am I missing anyone?
The LSU product is a steady contributor for Baker Mayfield, and a receiver a young quarterback desperately needs in this league. Whether he’s catching footballs off his opponent’s helmet or not, don’t double Landry’s ability to do the impossible, including making the Browns relevant again.
