Christian Wade excites with outrageous touchdown in first NFL match
By RugbyPass
Christian Wade has made an emphatic start to his NFL career with an audacious 70-metre touchdown.
The NFL's official Twitter account posted the match highlight, which shows Wade doubtlessly winning over countless fans with his first touch of the football.
The former England international showed off his trademark pace, receiving the ball on his own 30-yard line then skipping through the defence to net his team the 6-pointer.
The commentators were in raptures with Christian Wade's score - but perhaps not as much as the Buffalo fans.
"They are going crazy for their friend from England," said one commentator.
Many Twitter users commented on Wade's 'unusual' ball-carrying style - obviously something he's retained from his rugby days.
The Bills went on to win the pre-season match 24-16.

Fair comment but we also can't ignore the the fact that NZ Rugby had to threaten to sack the guy & his coaching team in 2022. The ABs were literally a laughing stock at that point. The flow on effects don't disappear overnight. But yeah, I hear ya. Moving on.
Go to commentsSeriously world rugby, you gave the mens 7s player of the year to someone who played....... 3 tournaments.
It does beg the question, In almost 25 years of this mens award there has only been 1 X2 winner of the award, does everybody eventually get a turn at winning it?
Please don't get me started on the womens 7s player of the year, it had to be Jorga Miller in my book
