What was that?

"It's the dance of the dead arm," said receiver Adam Thielen. "Everyone does it. This is a good thing. "

It turns out that Thielen has been dancing since his stint in Mankato, Minnesota, and has won out in his unlikely rise to stardom.

"It's been a long time," said Thielen with a smile, adding that The Bernie is often mistaken for The Dead Arm Dance. "The dance of the dead arm is better."

Thielen was actually the first person to do the dance during Sunday's game. He was eliminated after scoring a touchdown early in the third quarter before Cousins ​​pulled him back a few minutes later.

"We were talking about our signature dance moves and the dead arm dance is mine," Thielen said. "It's my dance, and (Stefon) Diggs has his dance, and when Kirk scored, he did both of ours. He was trying to participate in the party. It was fun. "

"It sounded pretty familiar to me," said Cousins. "I've been to parties where some people who do not know how to dance do that. I love embracing my limits as a dancer. I'm honest about that, so it's a dance I can have behind. "
