Nov. 6 (UPI) -- One of the best tight ends in the NFL dropped one of the best touchdown celebrations of 2017 Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys.

Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce pulled off the post-score party in the third quarter of the contest. The Chiefs lost the game 28-17.

But things were looking promising with about nine minutes left in the third stanza.

Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith dropped back in the pocket on a third and goal play from the two-yard line. Smith rolled to his right before finding a toe-tapping Kelce on the right sideline in the end zone. Kelce beat Cowboys safety Byron Jones on the play.

The Chiefs took a 17-14 lead after the score.

Immediately after snatching the touchdown, Kelce went over to the side of the end zone with teammate Tyreek Hill. The duo looked as if they were lining up on the starting block for a track event. Wide receiver Demarcus Robinson later joined Kelce and Hill.

Tight end Demetrius Harris advised the trio, pretending to be a judge.

Kelce, Hill and Robinson then pretended to pull up invisible burlap sacks, placing their hands at their hips. Hill and Robinson fell over and Kelce claimed top prize.

Kelce led the Chiefs with 73 yards and a touchdown on seven catches in the loss.
