Everyone made the same joke after Cedrick Wilson’s trick-play pass
Those watching Sunday night’s contest between the Dallas Cowboys and Minnesota Vikings were treated to some fairly sub-standard quarterback play. That’s until a wide receiver got involved, at least.
Both offenses were struggling into the second half of Sunday’s game, and Minnesota held a 13-10 lead late in the third quarter. Dallas was having a particularly difficult time, with Cooper Rush looking uninspiring in his first NFL start ahead of the injured Dak Prescott.
The Cowboys went more deeply into the playbook in the third quarter and dialed up a trick play. Rush threw a lateral pass to wide receiver Cedrick Wilson, who uncorked an absolute laser — while on the run, no less — that just about everyone agreed was the best throw of the game by either team.
