For a while there, it was uncertain what was to become of Jameson Williams.
The Detroit Lions wide receiver got his career off to about as tough a start as you can ask for. A torn ACL in the 2021 national championship game when he was playing for Alabama forced him to miss the Lions’ offseason program as a rookie and the first 11 games of 2022.
A suspension for violating the NFL’s gambling policy before the 2023 season cost him even more time, missing Detroit’s first four games of that year and struggling to reclaim his place in the offense after all the time he had missed.
