It isn’t often that football kickers score touchdowns, but Texas Tech’s Reese Burkhardt did just that on Saturday. He used the rare opportunity to display a handwritten message on the t-shirt under his jersey: “Trump 24 MAGA”.

According to Fox News:
Texas Tech kicker Reese Burkhardt had a career moment Saturday when he scored a touchdown on a fake field goal, then gave a shoutout to former President Trump.
After taking a surprise pitch and racing around TCU defenders to get into the end zone in the second quarter, Burkhardt pulled his jersey up to reveal a shirt that said “Trump 24 MAGA.”
Texas Tech ended up losing a 35-34 heartbreaker to TCU, but Burkhardt has been the talk of the game. Trump supporters have praised the senior kicker, while liberals have criticized him and the program on social media.
The excitement level is high for Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris’ campaign appears to be imploding.
