In the Redblacks' 2018 regular season finale against the Toronto Argonauts, Gott chugged a beer in the endzone as a touchdown celebration. Video of the celebration was widely circulated within Canadian and American social media. Gott did not face any disciplinary action from the league,[2] though the league did later change the on-field celebration rules to prohibit using or mimicking alcohol or drugs.[3]
