The doing a back flip while catch a football craze has returned as of right ... now. It is the offseason's greatest pastime, after all. Add Texas wideout Collin Johnson to the growing list of players showing off some raw skill in their downtime.
Johnson's one-handed, back flip catch -- in the sand, no less -- is the early front-runner for trick catch video of the year...

At 6-foot-6 and 212 pounds, there's a lot of body to control for Johnson, so the relative ease in which he makes the catch is what stands out the most.
Johnson caught 28 balls for 315 yards and was tied for first on the team with three touchdown receptions. There was already a lot of buzz around Johnson over the past year, but with this kind of athleticism, Texas fans should be excited to see what he can do in his sophomore campaign.
Of course, if he doesn't catch a touchdown while doing a back flip, all of this was for nothing.
