Lions' Calvin Johnson says he will continue to dunk despite ban
Andrew Weber-US PRESSWIRE / Reuters
Detroit Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson has figured out a way to continue using his signature touchdown celebration without violating the NFL's new ban on goal post dunks.
Because NFL banned his TD celebration of dunking on goal posts, Calvin says he'll dunk, but just won't touch the post. Wow. Gotta see that.

Dunking was previously allowed as an exception to the rule banning the use of props, but concerns over in-game delays prompted the league to crack down on the celebration.
