Julio Jones did what Julio Jones always does, except this time it was on the sport’s biggest stage.
But then again, this was probably the best catch of Jones’ career in the biggest game of his career. Here’s what the Falcons’ receiver did against the Patriots in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl LI Sunday.
Ladies and gentlemen, @JulioJones_11.

I'll give Julio Jones a 9 for that catch. I'd give it a 10 if he caught it on his helmet.

Maybe it had something to do with his cleats?

In any case, that’s one of the best catches you’ll ever see, and in the biggest game of the year. What a play by Jones.
