Miami Dolphins defensive end Christian Wilkins pulled out a Matthew Judon celebration, following a sack of Patriots quarterback Mac Jones.
Wilkins was able to bring Jones down for his first sack of the day, and the tally brought his total to 3.5 sacks on the season. This was his first sack since December 11 against the Los Angeles Chargers.
It was also his first sack against New England since the teams played in the 2021 regular season finale.
The sack added to what has been a defensive battle for both teams. Both offenses struggled to move the football, while the defensive lines ruled the first half.

It’s often said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and Wilkins did his best on Sunday.
