The Detroit Lions may be getting dominated by the New Orleans Saints but that does not mean they have not had a few highlights along the way.

Following the score, Tate did not waste any time by celebrating with, you guessed, “The People’s Elbow,” which, of course, was made famous by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

It did not take long for “The Rock” himself to catch wind of Tate’s touchdown celebration as he tweeted out his approval.
