Jameson Williams was mostly out of sight and out of mind since the Detroit Lions drafted him. The only time his name popped up was for a suspension after violating the NFL's gambling policy.
It's not like he'd done much in a positive way to be on the radar. He was worked back slowly last season as he recovered from a knee injury in his final college game at Alabama. He had one catch as a rookie, though it was for a touchdown. Then he had the suspension.
There was always the hope that Williams could come back and fit that need. His suspension was reduced from six games to four, or he wouldn't have been playing on Sunday against the Buccaneers. There's no real reason to doubt them. The defense is much improved. The offense is getting a lot from running back David Montgomery, though he left Sunday's game with a rib injury, and top receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown. Rookie Sam LaPorta has immediately become one of the top tight ends in the NFL. Jared Goff has done a very good job playing efficient football and getting the ball to his top playmakers. Goff had 353 yards on Sunday.
