He is 6-foot-4 and 310 pounds with hands as great as some of the best in the NFL.
Kidding on the last part. Christian Wilkins did what he had to do in the fourth quarter Sunday for the Miami Dolphins against the New York Jets.
The big guy was on in the apparent blocking role for the Fish but he fooled Gang Green and ran a short pattern to the end zone.
Tua Tagovailoa did not have to go through his progressions, not when the former Clemson star was in the end zone.
The former Alabama star threw to Wilkins, who managed to hang on to the football for six points.
The Dolphins had scored 17 points in a row and had taken the lead over their AFC East counterparts.

A different kind of THICC-6.
The Jets fooled by a Miami play. Never would happen. Right, Dan Marino?
