Good job, kid.
Now show us it was no accident. Same issue I have with the Frank Clark stuff after every nominally productive game he has.
He had a good game. I wouldn't oversell it or anything - I mean it was still the Kelce show and frankly Watson had two enormous plays in his own right. Guy had, what, 65 yards? Seems a bit early to crown his ass.
But it was a good game. He was the complementary player I hoped he could develop into. Cool. More critically, he had that 'flash' play that I said I wanted to see from him and that's ALWAYS what I've looked for in rookies. Show me traits. I don't care if you go for 105 yards on blown coverages and easy pitches and catches. Show me you have a skill that can lead to big plays in key spots.
He did so.
