Antonio Brown's Big Game Capped Off By Goal Post Celebration

PITTSBURGH (KDKA)- Antonio Brown keeps proving week after week that he is one of the best receivers in the NFL.

He also has a flare for the dramatic, including his goal post jump and slide celebration after returning a punt for a touchdown Sunday night against the Colts.

Brown ran into the end zone and jumped into the goal post and then proceeded to slide to the ground. He was penalized 15 yards for unsportsmanlike conduct.

Here's what Coach Mike Tomlin had to say: "I didn't see it, but I'm sure we'll rehash it 1,000 times in the next six days and suck all the life out of it."

Brown's fellow receiver Martavis Bryant seemed to enjoy the wild celebration.

"It was great. I got a great kick out of it, I love when he does that," he said.

"Oh, he should have stuck the landing." said Ben Roethlisberger. "Instead, he slid down the pole. He said it was slipperier than he thought it would be."

Brown had reason to celebrate. He caught 8 passes for 118 yards and two touchdowns. Brown's celebration came after his 71 yard punt return for a touchdown.

Antonio was asked what his next celebration could be.

"It's always a fun game," said Antonio Brown. "Such gratitude about scoring a touchdown. My kids were here, so they enjoyed it. But until next time, all you get is a smile."
