Elliott will match potential fine with donation to Salvation Army
Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is becoming famous for his "feed me" celebration, and is doing his best to make sure others don't go hungry during the holiday season.
Elliott jumped into a Salvation Army donation bin after punching in a two-yard touchdown against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, drawing a 15-yard penalty for the gesture.
After the game, Elliott confirmed via USA TODAY's Jarrett Bell that he'd match any fine he receives from the NFL with a donation to the Salvation Army.
"That bucket is sitting right there by the end zone so it's only right somebody jumps in it," Elliott said, according to Brandon George of The Dallas Morning News.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones backed Elliott's celebration:
