If you were out grilling, swimming or blowing up stuff over the Fourth of July weekend, you might have missed new Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones and other NFL players competing for charity on "Celebrity Family Feud."

Jones' "NFC offense" team defeated five AFC defensive players in the game that aired Sunday night, and then Jones got to lead off the Fast Money round to try to earn $25,000 for the Professional Athletes Foundation.

His five-questions-in-20-seconds effort started well enough.

• Something a woman has in the bathroom that a man might use to groom himself: A brush.

• How many times a day you look in the mirror: Three.

• A word that rhymes with stamp: Ramp.

• A place you go that you wish had wider seats: Airplane.

All good. But then ...

• A material that grocery store bags are made of: Pass.

"No, you ain't gonna pass," host Steve Harvey quickly said. Not on the last question. Not when playing for charity. And not on one of the easiest "Family Feud" questions ever!

Given a second chance, Jones came up with "plastic."

But Harvey wasn't done ragging on Jones. Good-naturedly, of course.

"You ain't been to a grocery store in so damn long," he said.

"I don't know where my chefs be buying their food at," Harvey continued, pretending to be Jones.

"Folks, this is an everyday-people game. ... He been rich so damn long."

And on and on ...

Jones, who claimed that he takes his own bags to the grocery store, took the abuse with a smile. And he and partner Teddy Bridgewater of the Minnesota Vikings won the game.

Plastic was the No. 1 answer.
