SAN ANTONIO — An unforgettable touchdown celebration during the University of the Incarnate Word’s homecoming game against the Houston Christian Huskies on Saturday has gone viral.

Cardinals WR Jalen Walthall celebrated a 50 yard touchdown in the third quarter in fashion with a hilarious headstand that ultimately earned him a penalty flag.

The celebration quickly went viral after UIW dominated the Huskies 45-20, earning them their seventh win of the season.

Video of Walthall’s headstand was later featured on the NFL’s Instagram after Atlanta Falcons Drake London attempted the move following a 9-yard touchdown that put the team on the scoreboard in the first half of Sunday’s defeat over the Dallas Cowboys.

London was ruled out of the game shortly after the TD celebration after he sustained a reported hip injury.

Detroit Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown also pulled the move after scoring a touchdown in the first half of Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers.
