WATCH: Wife of Dolphins DL Zach Sieler has amazing reaction to husband's first career TD
Miami Dolphins defensive lineman Zach Sieler scored his first career touchdown in the wild card game versus the Buffalo Bills on Sunday and it was one neither he nor his wife will ever forget.
The former seventh-round draft pick scooped and scored on a Josh Allen fumble, not only scoring his first career touchdown, but also giving the Dolphins their first lead of the playoff game.
Sieler’s wife, Hannah, tweeted her reaction to the game-changing play and revealed that the former Ravens player promised her the game ball if he ever scored.
“ALL I’M SAYING IS (Zach Sieler) PROMISED ME I WOULD GET THE GAME BALL IF HE EVER SCORED A TOUCHDOWN #finsup,” Sieler tweeted.
The reaction video was captioned: “I’m shaking and crying. Omg. Are you kidding me, A WHOLE TOUCHDOWN.”
Hannah Sieler, neé Cook, was a four-year starter for the Alabama women’s basketball team and is undoubtedly accustomed to witnessing big moments in important games, but nothing prepared her for her husband’s huge takeaway.
With starting QB Tua Tagovailoa out, the Dolphins were forced to start backup quarterback Skyler Thompson. They got off to a 17-0 deficit early before roaring back and grabbing a lead.
Miami ultimately couldn’t complete the comeback, falling 31-34.
Sieler was a standout at Ferris State before heading to Baltimore in the seventh round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
