Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock ended his first NFL season on a high note. After winning his fourth game, Lock realized a video of him on the sidelines rapping along to Jeezy's song "Put On" racked up millions of views on Instagram and Twitter.
During the third quarter of the Broncos' win over the Oakland Raiders, the stadium music at Empower Field at Mile High was blasting the Jeezy hit and as Lock sat watching the game, he sang along, word for word.

One enterprising social media user synced the sideline video to the actual song, which caused it to circulate online.
When asked about his rapping skills after the game, Lock put his thumbs up, smiled and told The Denver Post, "I was spitting it, though.”
By Monday, Jeezy got wind of the hilarious video and added his praise on Instagram.
As always, Black Twitter got in on the fun, giving Lock his praises.

Ion mind Drew Lock rapping Jeezy lyrics but y’all talking bout “invite him to the cookout” cause he doing a lil jig on the bench is too much.

The Broncos will not be competing in the playoffs this year, but fans hope Lock can eventually pull the team out of their most recent postseason drought.
