Houston Texans receiver Brandin Cooks has a simple touchdown celebration. He shoots the bow and arrow because he is the archer.
Cooks did exactly that when he scored his first touchdown of the afternoon in the 30-16 win over the Jacksonville Jaguar Sunday afternoon at TIAA Bank Field.
However, when Cooks scored a 43-yard touchdown to seal the Texans’ victory 30-16 over the Jaguars late in the fourth quarter, the 28-year-old sat on the ground in the back of the end zone along with fellow wideout Chris Conley.
Was he doing the bobsled? Were they rowing a boat? What were Cooks and Conley doing exactly?
“Celebration, it’s a long story short,” said Cooks, who caught seven passes for 102 yards and two scores on the afternoon. “I’m a huge F1 fan. And it was just in honor of the controversy that happened last week with Lewis Hamilton and Max [Verstappen], you know, with the safety car and letting Max pass and stealing that championship from Lewis Hamilton. I’m a big Lewis Hamilton fan.”

By beating the Jaguars, the Texans may have pulled a Lewis Hamilton of their own as Jacksonville moved to the No. 1 overall pick in the 2022 NFL draft with the Detroit Lions finding a win in Week 15.
