The Tennessee Titans had quite a day on Sunday during their incredibly dominant Week 4 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals, and the team had some fun in the process.
With the Titans firmly in control against the Bengals in the third quarter and owning a 27-3 lead, outside linebacker Trevis Gipson, who was ruled inactive the last two weeks, came up with a big play.
The former Chicago Bear notched his first sack with the Titans and forced Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow to cough up the football, which was then recovered by safety Kevin Byard to further dash Cincinnati’s hopes of winning the game.

But that wasn’t even the best part.
After the play, the Titans pulled off a celebration that would have made Nick Cannon proud, with the defense doing its best version of a drumline in the end zone.
This is awesome…

After doing their thing in the end zone, the Titans rightly received props for the celebration.
