He saw it, he caught it and now he’s in the record books.

Johnson, a freakish 6-foot-5, 236-pound athlete, made one more catch and now has 1,892 yards through 15 games.

“With the loss, it’s tough,” Johnson said of the bittersweet moment. “At the same time, it’s an accomplishment that took a lot of work. So you can’t take that thing away.

“I didn’t expect coming into the year to see this happen. But now that it’s a part of history, I’m sure it will sink in at some point.”

As the home crowd roared for their one silver lining in an otherwise embarrassing season for the 4-11 Lions, Johnson took the record-setting football and presented it to his father, Calvin Sr., on the sideline.

Detroit Lions receiver Calvin "Megatron" Johnson surpassed Rice for the most receiving yards in a season with a brilliant performance Saturday night in a 31-18 loss to the Atlanta Falcons at Ford Field.

Something that just does not happen very often.
Nice.
