On Friday afternoon Jarvis Landry joined a bunch of Miami Dolphins fan website owners in the teams practice bubble for an unexpected Q&A. Wasting no time, I asked Landry about the catch specifically and whether or not it was the turning point of the game.
Landry began to answer with a laugh as he walked us through the play. He said that all he remembered “seeing” was Ja’Wuan James before he closed his eyes and held tight to the ball. Landry than said that he began to feel the pile move and his body was telling him that it was going in the right direction.
Another member of the group interjected with a question about him continuing to move his feet. Landry had a great response.
“My feet were not even on the ground,” he said laughing at the memory of the play.
I pressed that the play was turning point in the game and asked if the teams offensive line and Ryan Tannehill coming together to push him into the end zone may have sparked the defense to get the needed three and out and the offense the subsequent winning score.
“It was impressive, when I saw the play later,” he said (I’m paraphrasing). Landry went on to say that he did in fact believe that the play may have been a turning point. He said that the defense stopped the Rams on the next series and that when the offense began the next series there was no question they were going to score.
Landry was a spectacular guest and it was a pleasure speaking with him. His persona on the field is far from the humble player you experience off the field.
