He does, but that's such a dangerous thing to do out there. If field conditions are a little slippery - boom; groin pull. Or if you don't see someone coming and you're in the middle of it, that elongated stride opens you up to getting knocked into !@#$ing orbit.
It's a little like hurdling a guy - I'm gonna look the other way if you do it when it's important. But man, don't make a habit of shit like that; it's awfully rare that a single play is more important than the 2-4 weeks you may miss by getting your dick knocked into the turf.
Discretion is often times the better part of valor in this league. Not when your Marcus Peters out there making 'business decisions' but when you're Watkins looking at trying to get another 5 yards at the risk of several games out. Maybe just take what you're given and run back fresh to the huddle without a hit on your legs/body.
