description

In the first quarter of the Bears' Week 10 matchup with the Vikings, third-round rookie receiver Marty Booker caught this pass near the line of scrimmage, and then took off running, showcasing his blazing speed as he sprinted to the end zone for a 57-yard score. The play was both the first catch and first touchdown of Booker's young NFL career, and kicked off a seven-catch, 134-yard, two-touchdown breakout performance. However, the Bears would ultimately fall to the Vikings in this one, 27-24, on Nov. 14, 1999.
