The move resulted in a 15-yard penalty on the Lions for taunting. The Lions got back to the Bears’ 26-yard-line on the drive, but Jakes Bates missed a 45-yard field goal to leave Detroit ahead by just 10.

One of the contributing factors in the Lions' underwhelming second-half performance in the Thanksgiving win over the Chicago Bears was a costly penalty against Detroit wide receiver Jameson Williams.

The Detroit Lions wide receiver caught five passes in Thursday's 23-20 Thanksgiving Day win over the Chicago Bears and made one of the game's best plays when he hurdled safety Kevin Byard on a 15-yard reception in the third quarter. But after the game, he owed his teammates an apology.
