Video: Receiver makes ridiculous catch against defender's back

Eye-popping catch could be top grab of the year.



Nothing was going to stop Chase Walker from making the catch for Crescenta Valley (La Crescenta, Calif.) in a game against Hoover last Friday night.

Walker reached out and around a defender to haul in a pass from quarterback Brian Gadsby. He trapped it against the defender's body as they both fell to the ground in the end zone.

Walker maintained possession and the ref signaled touchdown — after throwing a flag for defensive pass interference.



It may have been Walker's only catch of the game, but he made it count. Check out the acrobatic grab in the video above.
