Indianapolis Colts linebacker, Darius Leonard, had a unique celebration whenever his teammate Jonathan Taylor scored.

The Indianapolis Colts are spoiled to have one of the best running backs and one of the best linebackers in the league in Jonathan Taylor and Darius Leonard.

Taylor and Leonard set the tone for Indianapolis majority of this past season. Behind Taylor’s running ability, the Colts had a top-10 offense and with the ball-hawking influence of Leonard, Indy’s defense forced 33 turnovers, good for second-best in the league.

In combination, Leonard and Taylor also created something else special, fun celebrations.

Everyone who follows Indy knows that Taylor scores a lot of touchdowns and Leonard loves to dance. On game day, both activities came together when Leonard broke out a signature dance for every Taylor touchdown.

Darius Leonard is the biggest fan of Jonathan Taylor

Whenever Taylor breaks through the line and raced to the end zone, Leonard stops whatever he is doing and takes off along the sideline with Taylor.

As Taylor crosses the goal line, Leonard breakouts into a special dance that can best be described as an imitation of Blue, the Colts’ official mascot.

All in good fun, moments like this are representative of the energy Leonard brings daily, on and off the field. His intensity is contagious and it generally benefits Indy’s performance.

This video also captures what’s going great for Indianapolis. With the disappointing finish to the season, missing the playoffs, and the looming quarterback question, it’s easy to get lost in the current dark cloud surrounding the Colts.

However, Jonathan Taylor and Darius Leonard are extreme bright spots and they are the cornerstones of this franchise. They will be in Indianapolis for a while and with their skill, energy, and leadership, Indy always has a chance to be in the mix.
