Charles Tillman approves of Josh Norman's 'Peanut Punch'

Charles Tillman officially announced his retirement just two months ago, but it seems he still has a close eye on the league... and on one of his proteges.

After Washington Redskins cornerback Josh Norman punched the ball free from Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott on Sunday, Tillman tweeted out his approval of his former teammate's handiwork:

I see ya with the Peanut Punch @J_No24...my young padawan learner. So you were paying attention when I was teaching.ud83dude1c

Dashaun Phillips recovered the fumble, giving Washington a key turnover in the fourth quarter.
