Since being drafted by the Lions, Williams has spoken to the media a couple of times and because of his demeanor during those interviews, some have speculated that he is upset that he will be playing in Detroit

During a recent appearance on Complex Sports Live, Williams was asked about his demeanor during those interviews the speculation that he is unhappy that he was drafted by the Lions.

Jameson Williams is a Detroit Lion and we need to root for him

Williams chuckled before saying he was “just tired a little bit” because he had to “kick it the night before” as he celebrated.

Williams added that “it was a lifetime experience” to get drafted and that he’s ready to prove that the Lions were correct to trade up for him.

“I’m looking forward to it, for real,” Williams said. “Football, it’s what I do. They traded up for a reason, trusted me and my playmaking ability. We gonna put everything together after my rehab and we’re gonna show the world.”

Hosts just asked Williams about the idea that he wasn’t excited to be picked by the Lions, because he didn’t seem happy at his press conference. Williams laughed.

“I was just tired a little bit. I had to kick it the night before — it was a lifetime experience.”
