Laquon Treadwell aligned in a wide split, an isolation look. Ball on the far hash, receiver on the bottom of the numbers. One-on-one stuff. And no help for the Oklahoma State cornerback aligned across from him. It's the kind of matchup wide receivers like Treadwell dream of.
The release? Treadwell slow-played this thing on the fade route. He hopped off the line, reduced the pace and forced the cornerback to settle his feet before accelerating up the field. The rest looked easy, really, as Treadwell separated to the end zone, adjusted to the ball with his 6-foot-2, 221-pound frame and finished the catch.
