Black Friday saw the Miami Dolphins, along with those who bet on their first-half spread at -6.5, rejoice when a New York Jets' hail mary to end the half unexpectedly turned into a Dolphins pick-six, ultimately putting New York at a 17-6 deficit.

TCL, an electronics company and NFL partner, also seized some attention from this play. Their Ultimate Gameday Upgrade Giveaway struck gold with that throw, and as a result, the company is set to give away $1 million worth of televisions.

The contest

Each week, TCL offers prizes if a specific and rare event happens at a select football game. Last week, they would have given away roughly $50,000 in TVs if there was a punt returned for a touchdown in the Bengals-Ravens game on Thursday Night Football.

However, Friday's prize pool featured $1 million in 98-inch TVs being up for grabs. In order for the prize to be unlocked, the Jets or Dolphins needed to score a 98+ yard touchdown.

Well... the rest is history.

Shortly afterward, TCL officially announced that the touchdown qualified and those who registered before the game would have a chance to win.

Next week, TCL's contest will take place when the Dallas Cowboys play host to the Seattle Seahawks. A giveaway will be unlocked if one team manages to score 50+ points.
