New York Giants running back David Wilson has had a poor start to the season, but he finally had a taste of redemption on Sunday afternoon with a touchdown against the Philadelphia Eagles. To be fair, the Eagles defense is as bad as it gets in the NFL, but Wilson was still a very happy man.

After finding pay dirt, Wilson was so ecstatic that he decided to celebrate his touchdown run in a very spectacular way.

How do you celebrate a touchdown and the fact that you were able to hang on to the ball? Well, with a double back flip of course!

That’s levitation, holmes.

The Giants — and fantasy owners — are hoping that Wilson can continue finding the endzone and do a complete 180 from his putrid start to the regular season. When you are taking on a team as poor as the Philadelphia Eagles, you couldn’t find a better opportunity.

Maybe next time Wilson can go for a triple backflip.
