Josh Allen threw a touchdown pass to himself on ridiculous Bills' lateral play

Josh Allen joined a very prestigious club during the Buffalo Bills' Week 13 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Late in the third quarter, Allen became just the fourth NFL player in history to record a receiving touchdown on a pass he threw. Yes, really!

On Sunday night, the Bills put on a clinic in the snow against the 49ers, with the game being blown open thanks to some trickery between Allen and Amari Cooper. On first and goal, with the Bills leading 21-3 in the third quarter, Allen threw a quick slant pass to Cooper, who was bottled up by a 49ers defenseman. However, before the play was called dead, Cooper lateraled the ball back to Allen and the quarterback ran right into the end zone for the touchdown.

It's already a ridiculous play -- one which only happens thanks to the quick thinking of Cooper -- and even more so thanks to the fact that Allen is credited with throwing the ball to himself for the score!

It's truly a shame the NFL doesn't have scoring like baseball or hockey, as Cooper really should have gotten an assist on this play on the scoresheet. But still, what a truly awesome play!
