It's not everyday you see a quarterback catch his own touchdown pass. But that's exactly what happened Saturday in the Titans-Chiefs NFL playoff game.
Tennessee's Marcus Mariota had his 3rd quarter pass deflected into his own hands & then dove into the end zone for the six yard score.
Marcus Mariota just caught his own pass for a @Titans TD!!

It's the first time in NFL playoff history & just the 2nd time ever in league history that a quarterback has caught his own touchdown pass.
Mariota is the first player do it since Brad Johnson back in 1997.
Marcus Mariota is not the first person to throw a TD pass to himself, Brad Johnson did it in 1997! https://t.co/mmt5w81IN7
