Daily News | Meet the Chester receiver who’s new to football, but came up with a viral TD catch that landed on ESPN

At first glance, it looks like a glitch or perhaps the work of an elaborate hoax perpetrated by sophisticated software.

“Knowing that this really just happened in my first year playing football,” Hicks said in a phone interview, “that’s crazy.”It occurred Sept. 19 against visiting Interboro. Chester led, 21-0, in the fourth quarter. The Clippers faced third-and-20 from about their own 35-yard line. Hicks, who is right-handed, caught the ball over his head with his left hand, back turned to his quarterback, defender still draped over his body, and then galloped into the end zone without breaking stride as if it were all part of the plan.
