Ezekiel Elliott keeps Dak Prescott's hip dance alive with hilarious touchdown celebration (video)
The Dallas Cowboys are keeping Dak Prescott’s hip dance alive for at least another week. Star running back Ezekiel Elliott celebrated the freshly minted meme in Week 11 by showing off his own version as a touchdown celebration.

Dallas extended its lead over the Detroit Lions midway through the fourth quarter Sunday on a 17-yard touchdown catch by Elliott. After scoring, Elliott thanked his quarterback by imitating Prescott’s viral hip warmup.
If you missed out on the Prescott meme last week, congratulations on completely avoiding the Internet. But if you logged on at all following Dallas’ loss in Week 10, there’s a good chance you saw Prescott doing his hip “dance” to all types of music.
They all looked like this:

The Cowboys beat the Lions 35-27, ensuring Elliott’s celebration will result in more dancing memes in the coming days. The team’s fans may not have been in the mood to laugh had the team dropped its second straight game.
