A cheered Jared Goff throws the ball into the stands after catching the TD pass against the Seahawks

Jared Goff can also catch the ball.

On Monday night against the Seattle Seahawks, the Detroit Lions quarterback caught a touchdown pass thrown by wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and then made the most of his celebration.

On second-and-goal from the Seattle 7-yard line, Goff faked a handoff to David Montgomery and turned the ball over to St. Brown on an end-around. He then sneaked out of the backfield to the left while St. Brown ran to the right, stopped and threw the ball back to his quarterback. Goff caught a perfect throw cleanly at the 2-yard line and went into the end zone. He immediately threw the ball into the stands in celebration.

And here’s another look at the throw into the stands, then Goff celebrates with St. Brown.

That play helped the Lions take a 28-14 lead over the Seahawks midway through the third quarter. It was a chance for the quarterback-receiver duo to shine after running back duo Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery combined for the team’s first three touchdowns of the game.

During that drive, Goff had completed 14 of 14 passes for 155 yards, while St. Brown was 1-of-1 for seven yards and a touchdown.
