Odell Beckham Jr. made what might be the greatest catch of all time.
Beckham was being pulled down by Dallas Cowboys cornerback Brandon Carr on the Giants’ first play of the second quarter, yet he still managed to make a ridiculous one-handed grab for a 43-yard touchdown. It was insane.
Beckham received props from guys like Richard Sherman and LeBron James for the catch, and many other NFL players:
My Goodness…. That young man is bad!!!!

That's the best catch I've ever seen

Think about what made that catch so special. First, he was pulled down by Carr. Secondly, he somehow managed to stay inbounds despite being on just one foot. Third, he caught a bomb — not a short pass, but a bomb — using just his thumb and index finger, all while falling down.
Holy crap!
If you liked that catch by Beckham, you have to see this video showing how he does it in warm-ups too.
Below are some more angles of the catch:
