The wait is OVER! Detroit Lions first Round draft pick Jameson Williams will make his debut on the Lions Practice field for the first time today as the Lions kick off his three-week practice window in hopes of getting JAMO on the field in early December.
Why it matters: The Detroit Lions drafted Jameson Williams with the 12th overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft back in April, but the dynamic receiver has yet to play a down. Williams tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in Alabama’s national championship game loss to Georgia on Jan. 10.
- Williams was one of the most explosive players in college football before his injury.
- The Lions moved up to draft him at 12 in a bold move knowing the long-term investment in Williams was worth the wait.
- Dan Campbell mentioned last week that JAMO would likely not see play until December.
