The Seattle Seahawks took their touchdown celebration game to a whole new level on Sunday. After a four-yard pass from Russell Wilson to Jaron Brown, the Seahawks receivers ran to the short side of the end zone and reenacted ‘The Tip’, Richard Sherman’s iconic tipped pass from the 2013 NFC Championship game against the San Francisco 49ers.
The tip was intercepted by linebacker Malcolm Smith, which lead to Seattle’s 23-17 win and an appearance in Super Bowl XLVIII – where they defeated the Denver Broncos 43-8 for the first Super Bowl win in franchise history.
Both Smith and Sherman currently play for the San Francisco 49ers, and were on the field for Seattle’s touchdown and the celebration.
Doug Baldwin played the role of Richard Sherman, tipping the ball to David Moore, who played the role of Malcolm Smith. Jaron Brown played quarterback Colin Kaepernick, and Tyler Lockett was in on it as well, as Michael Crabtree.
Seattle is currently up 13-0 after kicker Sebastian Janikowski missed the extra point.
