Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams is playing in his second game back from a two-game suspension, and has shown no signs of rust. During the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Williams caught a pass from quarterback Jared Goff near midfield, turning upfield, and sprinted past the Jacksonville defense for a 64-yard score.
The speedster paid homage to former NFL running back, Marshawn Lynch, aka Beast Mode, with his touchdown celebration. Before reaching the end zone, Williams jumped in the air, turned toward the Jaguars defense and grabbed his cr*tch while landing in the end zone.
Here is a video the touchdown and Williams' celebration:
