WATCH: Seattle Seahawks WR Jake Bobo Makes Wild Catch for TD vs. Arizona Cardinals

Seattle Seahawks rookie receiver Jake Bobo had a highlight-reel touchdown in the first half against the Arizona Cardinals.
In this story:

Seattle Seahawks rookie receiver Jake Bobo continues to prove that he's an NFL-caliber receiver despite going undrafted in April. He already scored his first-career touchdown in Week 3's win over the Carolina Panthers, but Sunday's meeting with the Arizona Cardinals at Lumen Field produced the best play at this point in his young career.

Faced with a first down in the red zone, Geno Smith tossed a floating ball into the far right corner of the end zone. Watching the play live, it seemed the ball was going to sail out of the end zone, but Bobo jumped while surrounded by two defenders and make the impressive toe-tap catch for the touchdown. His score against Carolina came in similar toe-tap fashion.

Take a look at the score:

As a result of the touchdown, the Seahawks led 14-10 at halftime. Fellow rookie receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba had Seattle's first touchdown of the day.

Bobo said earlier in the week that he could see himself making plays on Sunday. He certainly did that and then some in the first half.

“I think experience just in general, whether it’s on the field, during the week, just kind of getting in a groove helps me a ton," Bobo said. "I think being able to contribute whether it’s in the pass game, in the run game, has definitely boosted my confidence a little bit to where I can get more comfortable, and kind of see myself making some plays on Sundays. That definitely helps mentally for sure.”
