Watch: Bengals RB Hill celebrates TD with Ickey Shuffle

The Ickey Shuffle's renaissance continued Sunday in Cincinnati thanks to rookie running back Jeremy Hill.

Hill paid tribute to former Bengals running back Ickey Woods by doing Woods' trademark dance after scoring a touchdown in the fourth quarter of Cincinnati's game against Carolina.

It was a slick move by the rookie but not the first time the Ickey Shuffle has been seen this year. It's enjoyed a comeback thanks to a popular GEICO commercial featuring Woods himself that began airing earlier this year.

Woods was a rookie sensation for the 1988 Bengals who made the Super Bowl as he ran for 1,066 yards and 15 touchdowns. Woods had the look of a long-term star, but he blew out his knee the following year and never regained his form.

The Bengals and Panthers played to a 37-37 tie.
