WATCH: Rashid Shaheed scores 28-yard rushing touchdown on RB Toss play

By the time Shaheed reached the line of scrimmage, he’d already been tossed the football and was running full speed down the sideline.

In a recent NFL game, Seattle Seahawks receiver Rashid Shaheed showcased his versatility by scoring a 28-yard rushing touchdown while lined up as a running back. This remarkable play, dubbed the RB Toss, came to fruition after running back Emanuel Wilson completed a first-down run. The Los Angeles Chargers' defense, anticipating an aerial play from the Seahawks, retreated to cover the pass.

Unbeknownst to them, Rashid Shaheed had already been tossed the ball by the offensive line and was sprinting down the sideline at full speed. This execution mirrored the maneuvers seen in popular video game Madden. Notably, this touchdown had an additional benefit: Seahawks receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba successfully tackled Chargers safety Tony Jefferson, an extraordinary feat rarely witnessed in the NFL, let alone in a video game.
