Notes: Jamaal Williams was ‘pissed’ after celebration penalty: ‘I’ve been doing that forever’

It’s not a thrust, it’s more like a wave.

That’s how Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams describes his touchdown celebration dance in Sunday’s loss to the Minnesota Vikings — a dance that drew an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.

The Lions were up 17-14 in the third quarter when Williams ran it in for another six. He threw his hands in the air and for three seconds, moved his hips around in a circle. OBSERVE:

“It’s not even thrusting. It’s more like a wave. ... I’ve been getting away with it for all these years but now they want to bust me for it.
