One of the most exciting plays in football is when an offensive or defensive lineman scores a touchdown. Last week it was Quenton Nelson and this week, Vita Vea hauled in his first touchdown for the Tampa Buccaneers versus the Atlanta Falcons.

The Buccaneers began the play with Vea lined up in the backfield at fullback behind Jameis Winston. After faking the handoff to Ronald Jones, Winston rolled out and found his gargantuan receiver for six points.

At 6-foot-4, 347 pounds, Vea made his way out on the flat as fast as he possibly could. Then, the stout defensive tackle showcased his soft hands by bringing the ball to his body for his first career touchdown.

Imagine lining up on defense and being told you have to cover a nearly 350-pound defensive tackle. Without being on the field, you can sense how scary it was for the Falcons to see Vea making his way out of the backfield towards the end zone.
