Sure, it was a scrimmage, but, pretty dang impressive.

Not only that, how would a player stick a landing like that in game and be able to run :lol:

That's technically a hurdle, which Federation rules has made a point of emphasis this year that needs to be enforced. My crew has come to the interpretation that it is more an issue of it being done in the open field, as opposed to at the line of scrimmage where there could be a pile up.

It's all based on player safety, because if you look at that runner in the video, he is in a defenseless position where he could potentially get hurt. It's a foul against the runner, but honestly, I'm not sure what the enforcement is. To be sure it is a spot of the foul penalty, but I don't know the yardage.
