Odell Beckham Jr. called Julio Jones’ first TD of 2018

Julio Jones

Long one of the NFL’s elite receivers, Julio Jones has had a truly bizarre inability to find the end zone this season.

The Atlanta Falcons wide receiver entered Sunday having failed to score a touchdown during a regular season game since November 26, 2017. That streak finally came to an end late in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s game, when he caught a 35-yard touchdown.

Many had taken note of Jones’ unusual touchdown drought. One of them was New York Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr., who was watching the game on his bye week and sort of called Jones’ score.

Beckham had to wait about ten minutes after making his call, but he took full credit for it anyway.

Jones’ inability to find the end zone was downright historic. Maybe all he needed was a Beckham bump to get that unwanted record off his back.
