It's never a good sign when your boss thinks that "you're sitting around on the job," but in the case of Taye Britt on Friday, it worked out just fine.

The Midland Lee (Texas) receiver slid right down on his backside to make a remarkable touchdown grab in a 51-24 defeat to Monterey. A Twitter headline read: "How in the world did this (receiver) catch this?"

Quarterback Sema'J Davis did a super job of scrambling before completing the 31-yard score to the 6-foot, 160-pound Britt just before halftime.
