Rookie receiver Jakeem Grant made his presence known in a huge way for the Miami Dolphins Sunday with a 75-yard punt return for touchdown.
He absolutely shredded the coverage unit of the Tennessee Titans, using his exceptional quickness and lateral agility to leave his would-be tacklers grasping at air.
Jakeem Grant can FLYYYY!
74-yard return TD.

Texas Tech fans have known about Grant’s ridiculous wheels for a few years now. And the NFL Draft community was all over this kid when he was clocked at 4.10 seconds (officially a bit slower), to seemingly beat Bo Jackson’s all-time record of 4.12 seconds.
Grant’s touchdown return tied the game at 7-7 after Marcus Mariota had previously scored a touchdown on the ground.
