Brock Bowers becomes the latest NFL star to do 'The Donald Trump' celebration dance after scoring touchdown

N.Thompson31 min ago
Las Vegas Raiders rookie Brock Bowers celebrated catching a touchdown by mimicking one of the many dances of President-elect Donald Trump .

Late in the third quarter of a game against the Miami Dolphins , Bowers caught a pass from quarterback Gardner Minshew.

Bowers was able to shake off his defender and scampered into the end zone for Las Vegas's first touchdown of the day.

As his teammates raced over to celebrate with him, the former University of Georgia product was seen doing a twisting dance.

It's very similar to a move that Trump pulled out on the campaign trail in the run up to his convincing election victory about a week and a half ago.

In the aftermath of the election, many athletes are showing their support for the former and future President.

That includes the likes of San Francisco 49ers defensive end Nick Bosa, who pulled out the dance after a sack .

Bosa's celebration came while he was in hot water with the league for wearing a 'Make America Great Again' hat during a post-game interview .

He was eventually fined for that , as the NFL has a rule against players promoting political messages through clothing while in uniform.

As for Bowers, the touchdown was a highlight of his day as he led both teams in receiving yards.

He hauled in 13 catches for 124 yards as well as that touchdown, but the Raiders couldn't pull off a victory as they fell to the Dolphins in South Florida by a score of 34-19.

Minshew completed 30-of-43 passes for 280 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception while Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa passed for 288 yards and three touchdowns.

The Raiders fall to 2-8 on the season - putting them in prime position for a top draft pick if things continue to go the way they are. They host the division rival Denver Broncos next Sunday.
