Jameson Williams Will Have Limited Snap Count
Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee) is set to make his professional debut against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 13. The rookie wideout has been sidelined all season due to an ACL injury he suffered in January. As expected, Williams is going to be on a limited snap count during his first game. The organization is going to ease their prized first-round pick into action. That being said, Williams appears to be off the streaming radar for Week 13. However, he could be worth stashing for fantasy managers who are able to wait for him to get up to full speed.
Dec 4, 2022 • 3:12 PM | RotoBallerJameson Williams Activated Off Injured Reserve
Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee) has been activated off the injured reserve ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The rookie wideout will make his pro debut on Sunday. However, fantasy managers should expect the Lions to ease Williams into action. The 21-year-old has been rehabbing from a torn ACL that he suffered last January. It's a welcoming sight to see Williams on the field, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect much from Williams right away. He could be worth stashing for fantasy managers who are desperate for help at wide receiver.
Dec 3, 2022 • 11:39 PM | RotoBallerJameson Williams Up In The Air For Week 13
Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said he has not made a decision on whether rookie wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee) will come off Injured Reserve to make his NFL debut in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. The Lions said earlier this week that it would likely be a long shot that Williams would play this weekend, and even if he does surprisingly suit up, the 21-year-old first-rounder is unlikely to play more than a handful of snaps as the team eases him into the offense. Williams is almost 11 months removed from a torn ACL, and although he has a very high long-term ceiling, fantasy managers probably shouldn't expect too much from down the stretch once he makes his debut.
Dec 2, 2022 • 5:31 PM | RotoBallerJameson Williams A Long Shot To Face Jaguars
Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee) is reportedly a long shot to play in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The No. 12 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft hasn't played football since tearing his ACL in the College Football Playoff National Championship game in mid-January of 2021. With the Lions sitting at 4-7, the team is in no rush to get him on the field and risk re-injury. There is some hope he will play this season, but head coach Dan Campbell said "it would take a lot" for him to suit up on Sunday.
Nov 28, 2022 • 7:26 PM | RotoBallerJameson Williams Could Debut In Week 13
The Detroit Lions won't have first-round rookie wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee) on Thanksgiving against the Buffalo Bills, but his return from a torn ACL in college is coming soon. He's expected to practice at full speed next week, and barring any setbacks, there's a good chance he's activated to play in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Williams did everything with the team this week has been going full speed in his rehab drills. He's been attending all meetings and is mentally ready. The 21-year-old should make his NFL debut next week and should be scooped up in all fantasy leagues if he's available. Still, we should be tempering expectations initially for the speedy deep threat, and the Lions are also getting D.J. Chark and Josh Reynolds back from injuries this week.
Nov 24, 2022 • 4:21 PM | RotoBallerJameson Williams Returns To Practice
Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee) has been on the Physically Unable To Perform list since the season began. However, the team designated him to return, resulting in his first practice on Monday. As the 12th overall pick, the Lions see a bright future for the young wideout, who put together an impressive final season at Alabama with 79 receptions for 1,572 yards and 15 touchdowns before suffering a torn ACL. The 21-year-old is expected to suit up in the coming weeks, adding another weapon for Jared Goff and company, who are on a three-game winning streak. He could make an immediate impact, making him an intriguing player to add and stash in fantasy football while we wait for him to be active.
Nov 22, 2022 • 1:05 PM | RotoBallerJameson Williams Hopes To Return To Practice After Thanksgiving
Detroit Lions rookie wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee) is hoping to return to practice after Thanksgiving next week. Head coach Dan Campbell expects the team to designate Williams to return from Injured Reserve after Thanksgiving, with a Week 13 debut against the Jacksonville Jaguars a possibility. The Lions are being very cautious with the 21-year-old first-rounder after he tore his left ACL in January, so fantasy managers probably shouldn't expect much from him once he returns later this season. In the long term, though, Williams has star potential and should remain stashed in all dynasty/keeper leagues. The Lions are getting healthier at the receiver position, with DJ Chark (ankle) a possibility to return this weekend against the New York Giants.
Nov 16, 2022 • 5:49 PM | RotoBallerJameson Williams At Least A Month Away
Detroit Lions rookie first-rounder Jameson Williams' (knee) return remains at least a month away, according to head coach Dan Campbell. Williams remains stash-worthy in the majority of fantasy leagues, but you'll have to remain patient, and he'll likely be eased into the fold when he does make his NFL debut. The 21-year-old suffered a torn ACL in college in January and continues to rehab. DJ Chark (ankle) is also on Injured Reserve, so the Lions will head into their Week 8 matchup against the Miami Dolphins with Amon-Ra St. Brown, Josh Reynolds and Kalif Raymond as their top three pass-catchers. It may not be until December until we see Williams in an actual game.
Oct 26, 2022 • 4:40 PM | RotoBallerLions Believe Jameson Williams Will Play This Year
Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said "we feel like he's coming on" when discussing rookie first-round wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee). The Lions believe that he will play this season. "When he's ready, we'll get him up and ready to go," Campbell said. The 21-year-old is still recovering from a torn ACL he suffered in college in January, and he's not ready to come off the Non-Football Injury list just yet. But given his upside in a Detroit offense that has looked pretty strong so far in 2022, Williams is worth stashing in the majority of fantasy leagues if you have the extra roster space. His biggest hurdle will be securing enough playing time and targets down the stretch alongside a strong receiving corps that includes Amon-Ra St. Brown, DJ Chark and Josh Reynolds.
Oct 20, 2022 • 2:30 AM | RotoBallerNo Timetable On Jameson Williams' Return
Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee) hasn't played this season. The first-round pick suffered a torn ACL in his final college game and started his NFL career on the reserve/non-football injury list. While the rookie is eligible to come off the list starting this week, head coach Dan Campbell said there is no firm timetable for his return. However, Campbell did say Williams won't return before Detroit's bye in Week 6. Fantasy players with an available IR spot on their roster should add Williams. The former Alabama star was considered one of the top prospects in the 2022 NFL Draft. Furthermore, Jared Goff has the 11th-most pass attempts this season and could turn Williams into a valuable fantasy starter once he returns.
Oct 5, 2022 • 7:10 PM | RotoBallerNo Timetable For Jameson Williams' Return
The Detroit Lions haven't offered a timetable for the return of rookie wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee), but general manager Brad Holmes said the team will take it slow with Williams' recovery from an ACL injury in January. Williams will open the year on the Non-Football Injury list, meaning he'll miss at least the first four games. The Lions have Amon-Ra St. Brown, DJ Chark, Josh Reynolds, Kalif Raymond and Quintez Cephus, so they don't need to rush Williams back. Williams is very intriguing in dynasty/keeper leagues -- he had 79 catches for 1,572 yards and 15 touchdowns at Alabama in 2021 -- but with a delayed start to his rookie season, he might struggle for consistency one he does return in his first NFL season.
Sep 3, 2022 • 2:03 PM | RotoBallerJameson Williams Ahead Of Schedule
Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee) appears to be doing quite well in his recovery process. General manager Brad Holmes believes that Williams is making great progress and could accelerate his return date. The 21-year-old will miss at least the first four games of the season after being placed on the injured reserve. The organization hasn't given a strong timetable for Williams, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to return anytime soon. It sounds like Williams is making solid progress, but he'll likely still miss a decent amount of the regular season. He's worth holding in dynasty/keepers formats, but isn't attractive outside of that.
Sep 2, 2022 • 1:21 PM | RotoBallerJameson Williams Placed On NFI List Tuesday
The Detroit Lions placed rookie first-round wide receiver Jameson Williams (knee) on the Non-Football Injury list on Tuesday, according to a source. It was always the plan for Williams, who suffered a torn ACL in January's National Championship game in college. The Lions are hoping he'll be ready to play around midseason. The 21-year-old will be extremely attractive in dynasty/keeper drafts, but he's not a must-draft in single-year fantasy formats, especially after the offseason addition of DJ Chark. Williams will miss at least the first four games of the season and potentially more as they ease him into their offense during the regular season.
