The play has gone down in Super Bowl lore. The ball was directly snapped to running back Corey Clement, who then went on to pitch the ball to tight end Trey Burton, who passed the ball to a wide open Nick Foles to score a touchdown. With that play, Foles was the first player in Super Bowl history to both throw and catch a touchdown.
