Jameson Williams fined for ‘obscene gesture’ during Divisional Playoff

Jameson Williams’ touchdown during the Divisional Playoff against the Washington Commanders ended up making his wallet a little bit lighter, according to a report from NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.

Williams scored on a 61-yard touchdown reception in the second quarter to pull the Lions within three at 24-21. He somersaulted into the end zone, but it was his actions after getting into the end zone that ultimately drew the fine of $25,325.

Williams was not penalized on the field for his actions but the expectation was that he was going to owe the NFL a few bucks. This marked Williams’ second fine stemming from a not-so-nice touchdown celebration. He was fined almost $20,000 for his gesture during a touchdown in November in Detroit’s 52-6 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
