Trailing by 24-21 at half-time, England - inspired by the defence of a bloodied Geva Mentor, the unstoppable Layla Guscoth and the near-flawless George Fisher in the shooter's bib - outscored the world champions 16-10. He runs polished routes, he lines up in the backfield, he makes men miss with some ease in the open field, he blocks at the line of scrimmage. He may not fit the mould of a supposed conventional No 1 receiver, but his production has made him just as valuable as one to quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. Since entering the league he has become a, if not the, chief implementer of the pre-snap-motion-heavy, 'look this way while we run that way!', window-dressing Shanahan offense that thrives on jet-sweeps, disguised formations and dragging defenses left to right with do-it-all weapons. If not already there, he is striding towards consideration as one of the league's upper echelon players in his position. Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson had joined Canelo and Plant on stage for the weigh-in.
