This Halloween night had many tricks for Jets fans to begin with, but it ended up being a treat when the final whistle blew, and it was thanks to the sticky hands of Garrett Wilson, who made not one, but two one-handed touchdown grabs to lead the Jets’ offense.

The best one of the night came on what seemed an impossible third-and-19 for the Jets on Houston’s 26-yard line when Aaron Rodgers launched one high in the sky down the left sideline.  CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson, #5, runs with the ball against Houston Texans safety Eric Murray, #23, during the first half at MetLife Stadium. (Ed Mulholland-Imagn Images) Wilson, with Kamari Lassiter draped all over him in the end zone, leaped and snagged the ball with one hand to the amazement of the MetLife Stadium crowd.

However, he was initially ruled out of bounds with his two feet not being in the black-painted end zone. However, upon video replay, it was determined that Wilson’s shin was in bounds with possession of the football, which gave the Jets a 14-10 lead after the extra point was made by new kicker Riley Patterson.
