DeAndre Hopkins celebrates first Chiefs TD with 'Remember the Titans' dance

The Kansas City Chiefs traded a conditional draft pick to the Tennessee Titans two weeks ago for wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins.
After a slow start in Week 8 against the Las Vegas Raiders, Hopkins is having a much bigger impact in the Chiefs' matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on "Monday Night Football." He made two crucial catches for Kansas City in the first half, including his first touchdown in a Chiefs uniform for a go-ahead score.
In case you missed it, DeHopkins' celebration after catching his first touchdown referenced the Disney movie "Remember the Titans," potentially a subtle nod to his former team.
Hopkins had 75 catches for 1,057 yards and seven touchdowns for the Titans last season. After starting slow due to an ACL injury, Hopkins had 15 catches for 173 yards and a touchdown for the Titans in six games before being traded.
His six catches for 66 yards and a touchdown in the first half of "Monday Night Football" almost equals his best performance in a game this season: six catches for 73 yards and a touchdown in Week 3.
