Watch: Vikings' WR Justin Jefferson makes insane one-handed catch

Justin Jefferson is one of the best wide receivers in the NFL and he made one of the best catches you will ever see on Sunday afternoon.

With the Vikings trailing, 27-23, and facing a fourth-and-18 deep in their own territory, quarterback Kirk Cousins lobbed a desperation pass that resulted in Jefferson making a ridiculous one-handed catch, wrestling the ball away from a Buffalo defender and not allowing it to hit the ground. 

Just an amazing, unbelievable catch.

That play was the start of two minutes of madness to close out regulation.

The Vikings continued that drive down to the one-yard line where they stopped short on a Cousins quarterback sneak on fourth and goal. 

But on the Bills ensuing offensive play, quarterback Josh Allen fumbled the snap in the end zone, where it was recovered by the Vikings for a go-ahead touchdown with only 39 seconds to play. 

Buffalo then got the ball back and drove down the field to get into field goal range and send the game to overtime.
