During the New England Patriots blowout victory of the New York jets on Sunday, one of the highlight moments was former practice squad wide receiver Matt Lengel scoring an unexpected first career touchdown pass from Tom Brady.

Lengel’s family was in attendance at Gillette Stadium for the game as his brother shared a tweet in the moment following the score that went viral over the internet after the game concluded.

Lengel then thanked everyone for their show of support as more and more reaction to the touchdown followed including their hometown newspaper a day later.
