Mark Ingram is pretty athletic. Don't believe it? This first-half run against the Washington Redskins tells a different story.

As you can see from the video posted on the NFL's official Twitter, Ingram tripped and nearly lost yards on this run. Instead, he stayed upright and ripped off a 70-yard gain.

Ingram's had a strong start to the 2015 season, and it's pretty obvious why when he's running the ball like this.
