New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham, Jr. unveiled a new touchdown celebration Sunday against the Eagles -- and was quickly penalized for it.

After catching a 10-yard TD pass, Beckham got on all fours and lifted his leg, mimicking a dog’s nature with a fire hydrant.

Beckham had nine receptions for 79 yards and two touchdowns in the Giants’ 27-24 loss. After the game, Beckham explained his reasoning for the unusual act after the first touchdown.

After Beckham’s second touchdown on the Giants’ next possession, the former LSU wide receiver raised his fist.
