Detroit Lions remain 'optimistic' that rookie WR Jameson Williams will still play this season

ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Returning from their bye week, after a 1-4 start, the Detroit Lions continue to remain “optimistic” that rookie wide receiver Jameson Williams will make his NFL debut this season, according to head coach Dan Campbell.

Although it’s unlikely to happen Sunday at the Dallas Cowboys (1 p.m. ET, CBS), Campbell says the No. 12 overall pick is progressing through the rehabilitation process but continues to remain on the reserve/non-football injury list for a torn left ACL until further notice.
