Detroit Lions GM Brad Holmes: 'No real concerns' about Jameson Williams after suspension

Jameson Williams will miss the first six games of next season because of a gambling suspension, but Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes said he is not concerned about the second-year receiver's behavior as a whole.

"Look, he made a mistake," Holmes said Saturday in his first public comments about Williams' suspension. "He made a mistake. He takes accountability of it. He knows it. Yes, he is young and he understands the mistake that he made and we’ve had transparent, open conversations about it, but we have confidence that he’s going to take the right approach, he’s going to have the right response in terms of what he needs to do.
