Detroit Lions star Jameson Williams has been fined $25,325 for his obscene celebration during his team's loss to Washington Commanders last weekend. After scoring an incredible 61-yard touchdown, Williams appeared to thrust his hips to the ground before teammate Amon-Ra St Brown hauled him back up to his feet in the celebrations.
Cameras quickly cut away from Williams on the broadcast but the two seconds that went out live on the air was all that was needed to make it a talking point. The NFL's X account tweeted out video of his touchdown but abruptly cut the footage before the 23-year-old's crude celebration.
His touchdown was a major moment in a wild first half between the two teams, as Lions made the score 24-21 thanks to wide receiver Williams - who somersaulted into the end zone at the end of his massive run. 'Wow! This is crazy! I mean, this is video-game stuff right here,' an astounded Tom Brady said on the Fox broadcast after Williams scored his touchdown.
