If done right, touchdown celebrations can inspire imitations across the country. Such was the case particularly for Incarnate Word Cardinals wide receiver Jalen Walthall, whose headstand celebration hardly went 24 hours before producing NFL spin-offs. In the first quarter of the Atlanta Falcons Week 9 game against the Dallas Cowboys, Drake London hauled in a 9-yard touchdown pass to put the Falcons up 7-3. After getting the ball back to a referee and accepting congrats from his teammates, London opted for a distinctive celebration. Look familiar? No doubt. London replicated Walthall's celebration from the day prior, prompting a jab from Incarnate Word's conference, the Southland. London wasn't the only NFL receiver who Walthall evidently caught the eye of. After a first quarter score of his own, Detroit Lions wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown also made a (albeit short lived) headstand attempt.
