A Miami defensive back’s celebration after an interception against Florida State will cost him the rest of his season, unfortunately.

During Saturday’s game between Miami and Florida State, safety Bubba Bolden intercepted a pass thrown by Alex Hornibrook. After the pick, Bolden celebrated with his teammates, as most players do. Unfortunately, though, that celebration will cost Bolden his season.

He was injured during the celebration and has been ruled out for the remainder of the season with a leg injury. Below is the video of that celebration.

That’s not something you see very often, and it’s too bad for Bolden. He was having a nice season with the Hurricanes, totaling 11 tackles, an interception and forcing a fumble on the year.

Miami defeated Florida State 27-10 to improve to 5-4 on the year.
