LOOK: Chiefs DB Joshua Williams’ comical expression during insane Bryan Cook TD

To say that #Chiefs DB Joshua Williams was surprised when Mike Edwards lateraled to Bryan Cook in Week 9 would be an understatement.

Fans weren’t the only people whose eyes bugged out during Bryan Cook’s insane touchdown in the Kansas City Chiefs’ Week 9 matchup against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.

Defensive back Joshua Williams can be seen with a comical expression on his face in a picture of the play that occurred in the second quarter of Kansas City’s international matchup in Frankfurt, Germany.

To say he looked surprised would be an understatement:

Williams didn’t touch the ball but was right in the thick of the action when Mike Edwards lateraled to Cook after recovering a fumble forced by Trent McDuffie. Cook would take the ball more than 50 yards to paydirt to give Kansas City a 21-point lead with mere seconds remaining before halftime.

Pictures like this are a great way to see plays from the perspective of the players who participated in them, and Chiefs Kingdom can certainly relate to the intense emotion displayed by Williams in this shot.

WATCH: Texas recovers fumble after Reggie Bush lateral

Reggie Bush tried the unthinkable after a screen pass and tried to lateral the ball to USC WR Brad Walker. You can watch the play here.

Up 7-0 in the opening minute of the second quarter, USC was on the verge of Texas territory looking to add to their lead. Quarterback Matt Leinart and the Trojan set up a beautiful play-action screen to Heisman winning running back Reggie Bush and he darts downfield.

Just as Texas players start to surround him to bring him down, Bush did the unthinkable and tried to lateral the ball to wide receiver Brad Walker. Throwing the ball behind Walker, the Longhorns jumped on the opportunity and recorded their first takeaway of the night.

You can watch the play here:

Texas now takes over with great field position after failing to secure any points on their first two drives. USC is currently up 7-0 early in the second quarter, but it will be hard to contain Vince Young and this Longhorn offense for much longer.

You can watch the rest of the 2006 Rose Bowl on ESPN.
