VIDEO: Julio Jones Breaks Off 54-Yard Touchdown to Give Falcons Lead Over Eagles
Julio Jones is incredible. Despite a rough night for the Atlanta Falcons offense, the veteran receiver is always poised to strike and he did Sunday night.
With the Falcons trailing the Philadelphia Eagles 20-17, Jones caught a short pass and broke off a stunning 54-yard touchdown where he ran away from Philly’s defense.
