Jarod Goff had a night to remember in the Detroit Lions' 42-29 win over the Seattle Seahawks on Monday. He completed all 18 of his pass attempts, he threw two touchdown passes, and he even caught a touchdown pass.

His perfect night passing broke a NFL record, but let's get back to that touchdown catch. The Lions called a fun trick play midway through the third quarter that had wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown throwing a perfect pass to Goff, who cruised into the end zone for his first touchdown reception of his career.

This was a pretty beautiful play by St. Brown and Goff, as they both made it look pretty easy:

What's wild about that TD for Goff is that he now has more TD grabs this season than a number of big names, including Travis Kelce.

Jared Goff now has more receiving touchdowns this season than:

- Deebo Samuel
- George Pickens
- Michael Pittman
- Travis Kelce
- Mark Andrews
- Dallas Goedert
- Brock Bowers
- Trey McBride
