Tennessee Titans safety Kevin Byard paid tribute to Terrell Owens' most iconic moment Monday night in Dallas.
After picking off Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, Byard headed straight for the star at the 50-yard line, spread his arms, and did his best T.O. impression.

Of course, Byard has one more celebration to go to match Owens. The Hall of Fame wide receiver celebrated at midfield after his second touchdown, only to be leveled by Cowboys safety George Teague. Still, Owens admired the effort nonetheless.
Owens told Matt Maiocco on the 49ers Insider Podcast last week that his celebration in 2000 caused irreperable damage to his relationship with then-49ers coach Steve Mariucci.
“With me going to the star, I think my relationship with Coach Mariucci, it fractured at that time, as well,” Owens said.

Owens is clearly on better terms with the organization now, as he received his Pro Football Hall of Fame Ring of Excellence at halftime of the 49ers' 34-3 win over the Raiders on Thursday.

But this begs the question: Is the NFL out of celebration ideas? One day after Michael Thomas paid homage to Joe Horn with a cell-phone clebration, Byard emulated Owens.
Apparently, the "N" in NFL stands for "Nostalgia."
