Watch: Lions running back hurdles defender in final preseason game

With just under nine minutes remaining in the preseason, Detroit Lions running back James Williams decided to add hurdling to his resume.

There was an audible reaction from the crowd in attendance when Williams leaped over Cleveland Browns cornerback Robert Jackson late in the fourth quarter of Thursday's matchup after receiving a short pass from Lions quarterback Luis Perez.

The Lions just signed Williams on Wednesday.

Despite the spectacular highlight that elicited memories of Le'Veon Bell and Saquon Barkley, Detroit lost to the Browns by a score of 20-16.
