Bengals’ Kicker Evan McPherson Celebrated Game-Winning FG Not Realizing He Missed It

The infamous Nick Young GIF now has a gridiron counterpart.

Evan McPherson thought he had finally put NFL fans out of their misery watching who was finally not going to miss a kick to end Sunday’s Bengals-Packers game. Keyword, thought.

The Bengals kicked booted away a 49-yarder for the most part of it’s flight, looked like it was going to be dead straight. McPherson celebrated, and while doing so, the ball took a left turn and missed completely.
