PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA - NOVEMBER 16: Jameson Williams #1 of the Detroit Lions celebrates a touchdown during the first half against the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field on November 16, 2025 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Williams is hugging the goal post after scoring a touchdown. He's in his white and silver and blue Lions jersey and he's pretty high up on the goalpost, above the NFL "Salute to Service" logo and he's clearly very excited.
