Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins came down with what was probably the biggest catch of the Super Bowl on Sunday evening, snaring a 44-yard bomb from Patrick Mahomes to set up the go-ahead touchdown in the Chiefs' win over the San Francisco 49ers.

In coming away with the critical reception, Watkins beat 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman, which is not an easy task.

Afterward, Watkins thanked Green Bay Packers wide out Davante Adams, saying that he learned the best way to burn Sherman by watching Adams do it on film, per Zack Cox of NESN.

Adams logged nine catches for 138 yards in the Packers' loss to San Francisco in the NFC Championship Game, so even though Green Bay lost, Adams certainly the one-on-one matchup with Sherman.

Watkins wasn't quite as dominant, but he still made a significant impact, snaring five balls for 98 yards to cap off a very impressive playoff run.

The 26-year-old played in 14 games during the regular season, catching 53 passes for 673 yards and three touchdowns. He then proceeded to finish with two grabs for 76 yards in the Chiefs' Divisional Round win over the Houston Texans and followed that up by totaling seven catches for 114 yards and a score in Kansas City's AFC Championship Game victory over the Tennessee Titans.

Watkins joined the Chiefs as a free agent in March 2018 and was limited to just 10 contests during his first season with the club, registering 40 receptions for 519 yards while reaching the end zone three times.

It seems safe to say that Watkins proved his worth on Sunday night.
