Garrett Wilson Channels Cole Palmer
In a thrilling 32-25 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars, New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson showcased a unique touchdown celebration that has been gaining traction for its creativity. Scoring on a 22-yard pass from Aaron Rodgers, Wilson not only secured his sixth touchdown of the season but also paid homage to Chelsea’s young star Cole Palmer, who has popularized the celebration in the Premier League.
Wilson’s celebration involved dropping the ball and rubbing his arms, an act that Palmer has made his own after scoring throughout his recent successful seasons.
“It symbolises joy, passion and hard determination for the game plus it’s funny as it works well with my name,” Palmer remarked on his iconic celebration, which has now been adopted by athletes beyond the football pitch. His influence even reached NBA players like Trae Young, who famously mimicked the move after sinking a clutch three-pointer.
