Toledo's Cody Thompson is college football's Mr. Excitement

University of Toledo senior wide receiver Cody Thompson often makes the spectacular play seem routine.

He will nonchalantly slide through the offensive line and grab a punt off the opposing punter’s foot for a touchdown like he did against Virginia Military Institute in this year’s season opener.

He will casually haul in a touchdown pass with one hand on a diving grab in the corner of the end zone like he did against Tulsa last season at the Glass Bowl.

He will fly by a defensive back down the sideline for a 78-yard score and quiet the home crowd like he did in 2016 at BYU.
