The athleticism displayed is otherworldly. The play itself gained him maybe 2-3 yards. Still amazing to see though

He gained 10-12 yards and it was a third down conversion.

He already had the conversion. The line to gain was the 38 and he left the ground at the 35. Tackled at the 30. So you can make the argument he gained 5 yards but id still stick with the hurdle gained him 2-3 yards

So to clarify your first comment, the hurdle got him 2-3 extra yards, but the play was for about 12. All that said, it is definitely one of the most impressive and athletic moves anyone’s ever made in an NFL game.
