DK Metcalf Hit a Sign Language Touchdown Celebration vs. Cowboys, and NFL Fans Loved it

NFL fans were loving DK Metcalf’s sign language celebration.

Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf had a monster game against the Cowboys on Thursday Night Football, including a breakaway 73-yard touchdown reception on a pass from Geno Smith during the first quarter.

After reaching the end zone, Metcalf celebrated his touchdown in sign language. The 25-year-old previously said he was studying ASL in his free time in order to talk trash to opponents during games without getting fined or flagged.

As Kaylee Hartung explained on the Prime Video broadcast, Metcalf signed, “standing on business” after scoring the long touchdown early. Hartung explained to viewers that the phrase means “taking care of your responsibilities.”

NFL fans on social media were big fans of Metcalf’s sign language celebration, and they had plenty to say on X.
