Whenever a big boy scores a touchdown in the NFL, fans tend to go crazy. Whenever a big boy scores a touchdown and then breaks out an epic celebration, fans tend to really lose their minds.
Well, Wilkins hauled in the catch, broke out the worm and helped the Dolphins secure a much-needed win. Yeah, it’s safe to say the fans loved it.
The whole world needs to see Christian Wilkins hit the worm after catching a TD. What a gem. pic.twitter.com/nKAfhIbZ7F

It’s often the small things in life that make us smile, and a defensive end doing the worm after scoring is among the best things we’ve seen all season. It was absolutely awesome.
