WATCH: Broncos receiver submits bid for best camp catch with Beckham impression
Jordan Taylor impressed his head coach with a one-handed sideline grab
It's not even August and we already have a candidate for the best catch of the NFL year. Yep, it's that good, even if it occurred during one-on-one drills during practice.
Meet Jordan Taylor, a receiver for the Broncos, who looked more like Odell Beckham Jr. than anyone else at training camp on Friday:

For obvious reasons, the catch caught the eye of the Broncos' head coach.
"I saw it from like 75 yards away. It was obviously something special," said Gary Kubiak, per the Denver Post. "I'll go take a peek (at the film), but Jordan's an interesting kid. It seems like the harder things get and the longer we practice -- those types of things -- is when he starts to play at his best. Legs get a little tired today and yet he keeps going. I think his conditioning level gives him a chance to be a really good player."
If you're wondering who the heck Taylor is, you're probably not alone. He played college ball at Rice and joined the Broncos as a undrafted free agent in May 2015. He has yet to play in a regular-season game, according to Pro Football Reference's database. One more thing: His nickname is apparently Sunshine.
With catches like that, Sunshine might see the field this year.
