Scoring touchdowns are exciting. And if you are an NFL player, there’s like tens of thousands of people equally as excited as you are when you score.
New York Jets wide receiver Eric Decker knows that, and when he caught a five-yard pass for a touchdown in the second quarter, Decker met up with a fan, and they head-butted each other.

That fan wasn’t wearing a helmet, and helmets are not soft things to hit your head on. Just ask Owen Schmitt.
But the fan got to see his Jets beat the Buffalo Bills 37-31 and got a cool experience to brag to his friends about. And if he wakes up today with a headache caused by knocking heads with a professional football player, it was probably worth it.
