ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills running back Christian Wade, an England native and former rugby star who was allocated to the Bills via the NFL's International Player Pathway Program, made a splash in his NFL debut.
Wade scored a 65-yard touchdown on his first and only carry in the Bills' 24-16 win over the Indianapolis Colts in Thursday's preseason opener.
With just over nine minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, Wade took a handoff from third-string quarterback Tyree Jackson, cut right through a gaping hole at the line of scrimmage and sprinted untouched into the endzone.
