A key factor in the Jacksonville Jaguars’ upset victory over the New Orleans Saints on Thursday night was the performance of wide receiver Christian Kirk. Kirk made one of the game’s pivotal plays with a 44-yard touchdown catch in the late fourth quarter.
What made Kirk’s contribution even more impressive was his post-touchdown celebration. With the game being streamed on Amazon, Kirk decided to playfully imitate an Amazon delivery driver in his celebration.
The creative celebration was well-executed. Kirk used the football as a prop, pretending it was a package he was delivering, placing it on an imaginary doorstep. He then took a picture of the “delivery,” just like an Amazon driver would. Finally, he knocked on the imaginary “door” and walked away.
This celebration deserves a perfect 10 out of 10 for its creativity and execution. If you missed the celebration during the game, you can watch it below. Kirk’s touchdown came in a crucial moment, as the game was tied at 24, and his score provided the game-winning points in the Jaguars’ 31-24 victory.
After the game, Kirk humorously commented on the speed he displayed during the celebration, saying, “I don’t think I’ve run that fast since, like college.” For more insights into the Jaguars’ significant win, you can read our takeaways from the game here.
