Justin Jefferson’s fake injury celebration was ruined by his offensive linemen

Published on

Please do not interrupt Justin Jefferson when he’s dancing.

Justin Jefferson is one of the NFL’s very best wide receivers. He’s also one of the NFL’s best touchdown dancers. Jefferson has been busting out the Griddy, this year’s trendiest dance, since he was back at LSU catching touchdowns from Joe Burrow.

Jefferson tried to take the dance to the next level in Week 10 against the Buffalo Bills, but his offensive linemen ruined it for him. After scoring the game’s first touchdown, Jefferson went into his signature dance with a little twist: he faked a hamstring injury. This was a set-up for another dance move, but his linemen broke it up before he could get into it. Watch the play here:

Here’s another clip with a better angle of Jefferson looking upset at his linemen for interrupting his dance. Fortunately, it’s all love after a touchdown either way:

It looks like this is what Jefferson was going for:

Is that the best goal celebration ever? I think so.

In case anyone actually thought Jefferson was hurt, he came back later and did this.

Salute to Justin Jefferson. It’s easy to get complacent when you’re in the end zone so often, but the Vikings wide out is always pushing new frontiers for TD dances.
