Christian Wade has done it again, lighting up the NFL with Buffalo
By Liam Heagney
Christian Wade has done it again, lighting up social media following yet another eye-catching play as he continues his impressive transition from rugby to American football.
Wade made an emphatic start to his NFL career a fortnight ago with an audacious 70-metre touchdown for the Buffalo Bills.
His second act was just as impressive on Friday night when playing his part in his team’s 27-14 pre-season win over the Carolina Panthers who were held scoreless until the fourth quarter.
The former Wasps and England winger caught a short pass from Tyree Jackson and then broke multiple tackles on his way to a 48-yard reception before getting halted just shy of the end zone.
That stellar contribution again lit up social media similar to his initial impact a few weeks ago in the Bills’ 24-16 win over the Indianapolis Colts.

The Friday Night game time makes it very difficult for those outside Dublin to get to the game without taking time off work. It also means either having to stay overnight afterwards (and getting ripped off by the gougers in the Hotels) or arriving home at an ungodly hour of the morning. But, of course, the fans don't matter a shyte, the TV Gods must be obeyed.
