San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jawan Jennings had a rare performance against the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LVIII. Jennings produced an unlikely but important touchdown for the 49ers when he threw a touchdown pass to Christian Mc Caffrey on a trick play in the second quarter and later made a 10-yard touchdown reception early in the – the fourth quarter.Not many players in Super Bowl history have accomplished this feat. In fact, only one player has scored a touchdown in a Super Bowl.
According to ESPN’s Field Yates, that person would be Nick Foles. Why does this matter to Patriots fans? Foles accomplished the feat on the biggest stage against the Patriots in Super Bowl LII. Foles gashed the New England defense for 373 yards and three touchdowns in a 41-33 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. But Foles’ most memorable moment came just before halftime, on a play immortalized as “Philly’s Special.
“Foles came out of the backfield and caught a 1-yard pass from Trey Burton on fourth down to give the Eagles the drive. The man holding the helmet is not David Tyree, but the Super Bowl player who will haunt the Patriots forever.Seeing Jennings and Foles in exclusive company on Sunday was a bad memory for Patriots fans.
