Watch: Former Atlanta Falcons star catches TD pass from Derrick Henry

Yes, the Pro Bowl running back of the Tennessee Titans, Derrick Henry, really just threw a touchdown pass to a former Atlanta Falcons star.

Exactly what you would expect to happen, right? Just like how everyone expected Matt Ryan to have a longer run this season than Marcus Mariota has had in over six years and a longer run than 18 other notable NFL players.

This NFL season has been one of the craziest ever and it has only become even crazier as week 11 has kicked off.

Watch: Former Atlanta Falcons Pro Bowler catches TD pass from an All-Pro RB

Remember Austin Hooper, the former two-time Pro Bowl tight end for the Atlanta Falcons? Well, he hasn’t had nearly the success that he had in Atlanta since he left, but he has made a significant impact in the Thursday Night Football game between the Tennessee Titans and Green Bay Packers.

On a second-and-goal situation, Derrick Henry took a handoff from Ryan Tannehill, and right as he ran into the back of his offensive line, he jumped and threw a touchdown pass to a wide-open Austin Hooper to extend the Titans lead (and Hooper wasn’t done). It wasn’t the first time Henry has done that.

This is what makes football so much fun, you just never know when an All-Pro running back will throw a touchdown pass to a Pro Bowl tight end, or when a 37-year-old pocket-passing quarterback will rip off a 39-yard run on a game-winning drive (and yes, I will continue to reference that play throughout the year because I still cannot wrap my head around the fact that he took off for a run of that magnitude).

Anyways, it is great to see Hooper have success because he was quite the player for Matt Ryan back in the day.

Austin Hooper wasn’t quite done yet as he ended up catching another touchdown on a pass from Ryan Tannehill this time. It was originally called incomplete but then was ruled a touchdown and it came so close to being an interception, crazy.

He is a player that I personally thought the Atlanta Falcons should have pursued at the trade deadline, even if it didn’t really line up with Terry Fontenot’s plan for the team. Either way, “HOOOOOP” has looked like his old self in primetime.

Arthur Smith should take note of his former team’s playcalling and pull out a Cordarrelle Patterson to Kyle Pitts goal-line pass in the next few weeks.
