Jameson Williams apologized to his teammates for the unsportsmanlike conduct penalty that led to a missed extra point in the Detroit Lions’ 16-9 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles last week and said he has to be “smarter” about his celebrations in the future.
“It’s something I can control for sure,” Williams said. “But I'm just going to move past it. It's a new week, we got a new game, and that's just that.”
Williams scored the Lions ’ only touchdown on a 40-yard catch-and-run in the second quarter and celebrated by jumping on the goalpost in the back of the end zone.
The celebration drew a 15-yard penalty and Jake Bates missed the ensuing extra point wide right from 48 yards in windy conditions.
