New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson made an incredible one-handed catch in the fourth quarter of the team’s game with the Houston Texans at Thursday night football.

On third down with 19 yards to gain at the Houston 26-yard line, Aaron Rodgers threw a pass into the end zone for Wilson before the 24-year-old reached out and scooped the ball in with one hand.

It was initially ruled an incomplete pass, but the call was later overturned after Wilson’s shin came down in the end zone before falling out of bounds.

Fans were amazed by the play.

That’s one of the all-time grabs.

The catch allowed the Jets to take a four-point lead instead of settling for a potential field goal. New York entered the game looking to end a five-game losing streak.

Despite the team’s struggles of late, Wilson has continued to improve after a slow start to the season.

The former Offensive Rookie of the Year recorded just 20 catches for 191 yards and a touchdown through his first four games. In his next four appearances, Wilson racked up 31 receptions for 382 yards and two scores.

He remained effective against a Texans secondary that owned the NFL third best get past the defense and enter Thursday’s action. With two touchdown grabs, Wilson collected seven catches for 76 yards.

His one-handed score was also crucial for a Jets offense that was briefly missing Davante Adams, as the star receiver left the game in the second half and was not on the field during the improbable play. He could clean up concussion protocol and caught a 37-yard touchdown before the game ended.

While several members of the Jets fell short of expectations during their 2-6 start to the season, Wilson showed Thursday night why he is one of the bright spots in the organization.
