Austin Ekeler just gave the Los Angeles Chargers fans a mini heart attack with his latest troll Twitter post. He posted a video of dolphins jumping around and captioned it “Wait for it…”
Ekeler is having a great season and with only 84 attempts he has 420 yards along with five touchdowns. Losing him would be big for the Chargers but it also wouldn't make much sense as they have a chance to make the playoffs. It was clearly a troll post, but a good one at that.
Some Charger fans believe that Ekeler was hinting at a Xavien Howard trade that would bring the Dolphins star defensive back to the Chargers. As we know now, that didn't happen. Most fans knew that it was a joke and some of them told him that he can't be doing that ahead of the 4 p.m. deadline.
