Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott found himself flagged for an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty following a first-half touchdown Sunday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The good news is that such penalties can lead to fines, and fines go to charity.
The irony here is that Elliott earned the penalty for leaping into a giant Salvation Army kettle on the Cowboys’ sideline following his touchdown jaunt. Fines aside, the act itself should do some good for the charitable company.
Nothing like a Zeke being dropped into one of our kettles! @EzekielElliott @dallascowboys https://t.co/8DgRVvk0Xn https://t.co/oXMfsj8RnI

This is definitely ready to become the meme of the week.
