Jameson Williams fined for his taunting penalty vs the Bears

USA Today

We all knew it was coming from the moment the penalty flag flew on the sidelines after Lions WR Jameson Williams and Bears DB Tyrique Stevenson started jawing at one another. Sure enough, Williams was indeed fined by the NFL for the taunting foul along the sidelines in Detroit’s Week 16 win over the Chicago Bears.

Williams was fined $11,255 for unsportsmanlike conduct that was penalized in the game. “Jamo” spun the ball in the direction of the Bears defender. Though the actual act appeared somewhat innocuous, the prior yapping and scrapping between the two did not help Williams’ case. Stevenson was neither flagged nor fined, as he was in the last incident on Thanksgiving.
