The Rock praises Golden Tate's 'People's Elbow' celebration

NEW ORLEANS -- Golden Tate has shown off his personality with some creative touchdown celebrations this season.

His celebration on Sunday, though, might have gotten a bit more attention. After a 45-yard touchdown reception where Tate spun to break two tackles and then flipped into the end zone on his own volition, he stood up and put the ball down.

Then, in fashion that would make WWE wrestlers proud, he dropped the People’s Elbow on the football with Marvin Jones providing the mat slaps to count out the pin.

Within an hour, the celebration caught the eye of the originator -- The Rock.
