EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- A catch, a thud and a whole lot of open field.
That was the recipe for Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd to reel off a 56-yard touchdown in Sunday's game against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium.
On the final play of the first quarter, Boyd caught a pass from quarterback Joe Burrow, lowered his shoulder into Jets safety Jordan Whitehead and wriggled loose for a touchdown to give the Bengals a 14-3 lead over the Jets.
Boyd accumulated 47 yards after the catch and 44 yards after contact according to ESPN Stats and Info.
