Calvin Johnson has been responsible for some amazing plays over the course of his career. To me this is the one that makes you say “I can’t believe he did that” every time you watch it. Covered by 3 defenders Calvin Johnson decided that didn’t matter and he just out jumped them all for a spectacular catch. While I’m sure we were all thinking “please don’t bomb it Matthew” We got a pleasant surprise out of it. The Lions would go on to lose this game. But this highlight will be playing during Calvin’s Hall Of Fame speech.
