Ezekiel Elliott walked off the Ford Field turf without shoes on Sunday.

The Dallas Cowboys’ running back celebrated his team’s 35-27 win over the Detroit Lions by giving his cleats to two young kids in the stands near the entrance to the tunnel. Elliott, who has done this before with his shoes and other gear, picked out young fans on either side of the tunnel to gift one of his cleats.

Elliott had 45 yards rushing on 16 carries and 28 yards receiving on two catches.
