Marshall Newhouse knows firsthand how hard it is to run the ball in the NFL.
The Oakland Raiders offensive tackle produced one of the best bloopers of the 2017 season Sunday during his team’s Week 9 matchup with the Miami Dolphins. The Raiders were leading by four early in the fourth quarter when quarterback Derrick Carr fumbled the ball. Newhouse recovered it and ran a few yards — before Dolphins lineback Kiko Alonso turned him into a helicopter.

Marshall Newhouse had visions of the most amazing fat guy touchdown ever. That ended quickly.

Marshall Newhouse just showed why I never wanted the ball. It's a bullseye that says please kill me.

Even Newhouse himself had to laugh at the absurdity of the play.
