Quinnen Williams breaks out Alabama 'crane kick' celebration during Jets' win over Texans
New York Jets defensive tackle Quinnen Williams was in a good mood on Sunday after Alabama pulled off a 4-overtime win over Auburn in the Iron Bowl.
Those good feelings continued as the Jets defeated the Houston Texans 21-14 to improve to 3-8 on the season. And Williams was a key part of that win, coming up with 2 sacks of Tyrod Taylor on the afternoon.
During the game, Williams couldn’t resist a little nod to his alma mater, as you can see below when he broke out the “crane kick” celebration used by Alabama’s Jameson Williams and the Tide’s wide receivers:

Jameson Williams has gone on record as saying he wasn’t sure how it originally started, but it looks like it’s spread to the pros courtesy of a Crimson Tide great.
