San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings caught his first NFL pass during Sunday's 17-11 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. As a bonus, it was also his first NFL touchdown.

"It was just an unbelievable moment... All glory to God," Jennings said after the game. "I'm just thankful just for the opportunity."

It sounds like Kittle had his teammate's back and made sure that football didn't get lost in the chaos following the big play in an opponent's stadium.
