This was the Play Of the Day (POD) for our Saturday pickup touch football games on August 13, 2007:
On a play in which he and his teammate were doing crossing routes, Tyler looked to be the guy who was going to draw the coverage. But the ball was thrown as both Tyler and his teammate crossed in the middle of the field and it glanced his teammate, bounced off a defender between them, and then found its way to Tyler but way behind him.
With his momentum carrying him away from the ball, Tyler reached back with his right arm and corralled the ball and brought it into his arms as he turned upfield. He weaved through some additional traffic till he got in the clear, then dashed to the end zone for the score and the Play Of the Day.
