David Montgomery hits Pee Wee Herman dance following touchdown run

After spotting the Jaguars three points via a 59-yard field goal, the Lions marched down the field, going 70 yards in nine plays and taking 4:37 off the clock. It culminated with a two-yard touchdown run for David Montgomery. That’s his 9th rushing touchdown of the season and third in the last four games.

The running back channeled his inner child by doing the Pee Wee Herman dance in celebration. Montgomery must be a kid at heart. First, he and Jahmyr Gibbs become known as Sonic and Knuckles and now he pays tribute to the late great Paul Reubens, the man who played the iconic character.

Detroit is hoping to make Ford Field their own playhouse this week as a 14-point favorite. They were up 7-3 following Montgomery’s touchdown.
