The average NFL cheerleader earns a $60-70 a game but considering the events that took place during the Panthers game against the Redskins they should lobby for a raise.

Washington’s franchise quarterback Kirk Cousins made a dash to the sideline during the fourth quarter in an attempt to stop the game clock.

As Cousins was about to step out of bounds he was shoved in the back by opposing player Kawann Short, causing the QB to lose his balance and tumble awkwardly.

It just so happened a Redskins cheerleader was cheering in the wrong place at the wrong time.


Her enthusiastic fist pumps were met with a hapless thud as Cousins helmet collided with her legs causing the stunned dancer to flip and fall face first into the frosty playing surface.

It was a heavy collision but it didn’t stop this cheerleader from choreographing a smile for the cameras shortly after the clash.

NFL club owners are flush with cash, so surely a little more can be shared around for those who have to sell the notion of happiness while pulling off dance moves for more than three hours in the cold.
