Odell Beckham's awesome TD celebration looked like a tribute to his mom

Odell Beckham is a showman. Pretty good receiver too.

The New York Giants star receiver celebrated his 10th touchdown of the season in a fun way. He took a slant pass, split the defense and ran it in for a 72-yard score against the New York Jets. And that by itself was entertaining.

Then Beckham got into the end zone and took it to another level. He started running horizontally through the end zone, and mimicked jumping over three hurdles before "crossing the tape" at the finish line.

Hilarious.

Beckham's mother, Heather Van Norman, was an All-American track runner at LSU from 1991-93 and won six individual All-American honors there. So he had the track thing in his blood. He let it out in the end zone in what has to be the best touchdown celebration of the NFL season so far.
