Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes has not given a projected comeback date for coveted rookie wide receiver Jameson Williams. However, Holmes added that he and the club were not worried and were cautious about the receiver’s recovery from his ACL injury.
Williams was injured while representing Alabama in the national championship game in January. The fast rookie will miss at least the first four games of the season as he will start the season on the non-football injury list (because the anterior cruciate ligament rupture occurred in college).
“Again, on the road, I won’t give a hard date, but I will say that with his rehab, he was nervous for weeks and weeks, and he was very genetically gifted.” said Holmes. “When it maintains that consistency, it can actually accelerate the spin we think.
On the sidelines, the rookie remained cautious. He spends most of his training close to the coaches and almost always carries a soccer ball with him. Williams also seemed to have a unique quality. Another incentive to take it carefully and avoid making any forced decisions on the way back is the team’s significantly better welcoming position.
Amon Ra St. Brown, DJ Chark, Josh Reynolds, Kalif Raymond and Quintez Cephus are among the Lions’ early season squad players. If anyone needs a reminder of the heightened depth, it’s worth mentioning Tom Kennedy’s impressive preseason performance and his predictable return to the practice roster, not to mention Cephus’ previous performance as a top pick when healthy.

Jameson Williams was recognized as the best WR at college level, which caused the Detroit Lions to draft him.
Williams had a ridiculous 1,572 yards and 15 touchdowns in 79 receptions for Alabama last season. His top speed in his solo season at Tuscaloosa was over 23 mph with a 94-yard field goal in the first game of the previous season.
Traded the Lions for the chance to pick Williams in the April draft. The Minnesota Vikings took Picks 12 and 46 from Holmes in exchange for Picks 32, 34, and 66. This was an unusually bold leap in the pecking order, especially for an injured wide receiver. Holmes admitted to Peter King prior to training camp that he had previously lived by the maxim of “picking the wounded in the first round”, but was “totally convicted” about Williams.
In response to a question about Williams’ possible involvement after all was clarified, Holmes said it was an issue for head coach Dan Campbell. Williams’ versatility and distinctive skills were brought up by the general manager, who asked if Williams played on special teams if he wasn’t a full-time wide receiver.
Playing a type of ballplayer, Williams was a thrilling comeback, showcasing his aggression against Alabama. He made headlines when he dropped a punt at the 2-yard line in the same game against his opponent, Auburn, and was later penalized for targeting.
