Kyren Williams’ frustration showed itself in a unique way during Monday night’s loss to the Miami Dolphins, as the Rams running back shoved his finger in the ear hole of an opponent’s helmet.
The Los Angeles Rams running back was not directly involved in the confrontation that led to the disgusting act.
It was a shove from Miami cornerback Kader Kohou after a play ended on Williams’ teammate, Demarcus Robinson.
Williams was pointing out where the chaos started by pointing at Kohou before his finger found his way into the ear hole of his rival’s helmet and was stuck in it for a few moments.
The running back was wearing gloves, so his bare left-pointer finger did not go into the ear of Kohou. However, the gesture is far from traditional in any sense. Williams was not called for a penalty for the finger poke.

The act was not penalized by officials on the field but left some on social media confused
The weird act appeared to be among the overall frustration for the Rams, who had a Dolphins team coming into their home stadium on a two-game losing streak.
Miami left California with a 23-15 win over the Rams, a blow to the team’s hopes of staying in line with the rest of the compact NFC West.
The Rams are now 1.5 games behind the Cardinals for first place in the division, with the defending NFC-champion 49ers in between Los Angeles in the standings.
Los Angeles only has three games against divisional opponents left this season, one game each against the Cardinals, 49ers, and Seahawks.
Williams himself did have 62 rushing yards against the Dolphins, his lowest total since Week 2 against the Cardinals.
Yet, the Rams have a promising matchup on Sunday to turn the tide, going on the road to face the 3-7 Patriots, who have only won one game at home this season.
