WATCH: Detroit Lions celebrate touchdowns with robots and suits
The Detroit Lions lead the Green Bay Packers 14-3 at halftime, and they celebrated with Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em robots and by suiting up.
The Detroit Lions offense went to work in the first half of their Monday Night Football game against the Green Bay Packers, scoring two touchdowns and celebrating both of them in style.
After Matthew Stafford connected with Marvin Jones Jr. for a 25-yard touchdown on the team’s first drive of the game, Jones and his teammates celebrated with a round of Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots. Although it looks like Ameer Abdullah might have cheated to give Jones the win over Eric Ebron and Golden Tate.
