Khalil Herbert took the handoff from Joe Burrow. He didn’t anticipate being tackled by the derriere of his left tackle. Butt, that’s what happened.
In the second quarter of the Cincinnati Bengals’ game in Dallas on Monday, Herbert started to run and ran smack into the backside of the 6-foot-3, 345-pound Ford.
Ford’s backside won and Herbert went down on the play that will be known as the “Butt Tackle.”

It joins Mark Sanchez and the “Butt Fumble” in infamy but not to the extent that has lived with the former New York Jets QB.
