Even Justin Jefferson's teammate was shocked at his big catch vs. Bills

If you haven't seen it by now please do yourself a favor and go watch Justin Jefferson's reality-defying catch against the Buffalo Bills. The Minnesota Vikings' superstar wide receiver made a catch so good that it put other incredible catches in NFL history in its shadow.

Move over Odell Beckham Jr., there's a new best catch ever in town.

In fact, let's watch it again just for fun.

Jefferson's catch was so incredible that even his teammates — who see him do mind-blowing things on a daily basis in practice — were hard-pressed to believe that he hauled that ball in.

Here's fellow wide receiver K.J. Osborn talking to The 33rd Team about that moment.

"That was the best catch I've seen in person. Ever. Obviously, it's right up there with Odell's catch. It was just amazing," Osborn said in a video.

"He caught it and I was like, 'Oh my Lord'. I just kind of looked at him and then I just looked at the clock. We kind of had to keep going. When we got to the break, I'm just looking at him and I'm like, 'Bro, how did you catch that?' And I'm just holding his head and I'm like, 'Bro, how did you catch the ball like that?'"

Osborn went on to reveal that Jefferson was obviously pumped up about the catch. In fact, it sounds like the star wide receiver thinks there's some destiny working in the Vikings' favor.

"He was just telling me, 'It's our season, it's our season'", Osborne revealed.

The second-year wideout from Miami also confirmed that this wasn't the first time he's seen Jefferson make an incredible play. We watching the games get tot see Jefferson make incredible catches all the time on Sundays, but the Vikings are also treated to a show from time to time in practice.

"I've seen him make some one-handed catches before but that one was definitely No. 1," Osborn said.
