Dylan Drummond Shows Off Talent In Final Preseason Game

Detroit Lions wide receiver Dylan Drummond displayed his talent in Friday's 26-17 preseason win over the Carolina Panthers. Drummond corralled five receptions for 46 yards on six targets and showcased his exceptional receiving chops, with his longest reception going for 20 yards. The impending suspension of Jameson Williams gives Drummond a shot to make the final roster. Despite the solid showing, however, the rookie from Eastern Michigan isn't expected to be fantasy-relevant and is best left on your league's waiver wire.

Offseason In Review: Detroit Lions

Finishing last season with rare momentum, the Lions are in a stranger position coming into Dan Campbell‘s third year.

Lions WR Jameson Williams To Miss Rest Of Preseason

It doesn’t sound like we’ll see Jameson Williams again until the middle of October. The Lions wideout suffered a hamstring injury this week that will keep him out of the team’s remaining preseason contests, according to Justin Rogers of The Detroit News.

Jameson Williams Likely To Miss Remainder Of Preseason

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams (hamstring) suffered another lower-body injury this week and head coach Dan Campbell said there's a "good chance" he'll be out for the remainder of the preseason. Williams will miss the first six games of the regular season due to a suspension, so it's yet another negative development for the second-year wideout. By the time he returns to action in Week 7, he'll have totaled just two career touches and missed a ton of practice time with multiple injuries. Ultimately, his career outlook is beginning to be very concerning. His place in redraft and dynasty rankings should probably come down. Marvin Jones Jr., Josh Reynolds, Kalif Raymond, and Sam LaPorta should see more looks in his absence.

Jameson Williams Tweaks His Hamstring

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams (hamstring) pulled up grabbing his right hamstring during training camp practice on Wednesday. The good news is that Williams was able to walk to the locker room under his own power, but it's yet another injury for the second-year receiver this summer. The 22-year-old is already facing a six-game suspension to begin his second NFL season, and the injuries on top of it are making fantasy managers in dynasty/keeper leagues wonder if he's quickly becoming a bust. Williams missed the vast majority of 2022 while recovering from a torn ACL. He needs all the preseason work he can get, but it remains to be seen if this latest injury will keep him out the team's second preseason game this Saturday against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Jameson Williams Has Been Working With Second-Team Offense

Detroit Lions second-year wide receiver Jameson Williams has mostly been working with the second-team offense at training camp. With so many pass-catchers, it's probably best that Williams works with the second team for now. He's getting plenty of looks with that unit, and it allows the starters to build some continuity knowing they'll be without Williams for the first six games of the year due to suspension. The 22-year-old has worked in with the first unit at times. Williams is also set to see a ton of preseason reps after missing most of his rookie season in 2022 while recovering from an ACL tear. Williams still has plenty of upside, but he's going to miss six games and has also had issues with drops during camp.

Jameson Williams To See Plenty of Preseason Snaps

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams is suspended for the first six games of the 2023 NFL season and is coming off of a leg injury, but head coach Dan Campbell said he'll see plenty of reps during the team's upcoming preseason games. "We're going to douse him with a ton of game reps," Campbell said. The second-year wideout played in just six contests as a rookie, catching one of his nine targets for 41 yards and a touchdown and rushing once for 40 yards. That said, Williams could benefit from any game-like situations as the team kicks off preseason action on August 11 against the New York Giants.

Jameson Williams Throws Punch At Teammate

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams, who will be suspended for the first six games of the 2023 season, threw a punch at rookie cornerback Starling Thomas at training camp practice on Monday and has reportedly struggled with multiple dropped passes. Williams let his frustration get the best of him on Monday, and he hasn't been making the most of his summer repetitions so far in camp. The 22-year-old also missed the beginning of camp with a mild leg injury, but he's back practicing now. Williams missed most of his rookie campaign in 2022 while recovering from a torn ACL, and so far early in his NFL he continues to disappoint. Still, the upside is intriguing enough to make him a late-round flier in single-year fantasy drafts this fall.

Lions Offensive Coordinator Praises Sam LaPorta At Training Camp

Detroit Lions rookie tight end Sam LaPorta notably had great performances during OTAs in the spring, and he's continuing to make plays during training camp. "He's earned the right now to be in that first-team huddle with Jared and that offensive line," Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson said. "He's proven that over the course of the springtime and the work that he's put in. So, (we're) encouraged with where he's going. He's still making mistakes, he's still learning, and we are putting a lot of pressure on him to pick it up, but I think he's in a really good spot for a first-year tight end." According to Colton Pouncy of The Athletic, LaPorta is also getting work with the second and third-team offenses to maximize his reps. Ultimately, it seems the Lions are preparing him to be the Week 1 starter for the Thursday night opener against the Kansas City Chiefs. LaPorta could have plenty of value while Jameson Williams (six-game suspension) is out.

Jameson Williams Returns To Practice On Sunday

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams (leg) is practicing on Sunday. The wideout had been bothered by a leg injury, but fortunately, he's moving in the right direction. Williams hasn't had the best start to his NFL career. He battled injuries last season, appearing in only six games. The 22-year-old will also start the 2023-24 campaign serving a six-game suspension for violating league rules involving gambling. But if Williams can get on the field and stay there, his ceiling remains high, so he's worth stashing heading into Week 1.

Jameson Williams To Miss Training Camp With Leg Injury

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams (leg) will not participate in training camp this offseason. The Alabama product missed last year's training camp while recovering from a torn ACL he suffered in college, so his injuries are beginning to become a concern. On top of that, he is set to miss the first six games of the 2023 season for violating the league's gambling policy. Needless to say, the speedy 22-year-old's outlook is uncertain moving forward. In his training camp absence, Kalif Raymond, Denzel Mims, and Josh Reynolds should see more work with the first and second-team offenses.

Jameson Williams Is Motivated

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams, who will serve a six-game suspension to begin the 2023 season for violating the league's gambling policy, is being mentored by receivers coach and former nine-year pro Antwaan Randle El. "I don't have to motivate him much when it comes to ball. He loves the game and wants to be better and works at it," Randle El said. "But the encouragement part, with all that's going on it's just, 'Hey, keep doing what you're doing; stay at it, in terms of working hard. This is just another stumbling block that, again, you'll come out stronger on the other side.'" The 22-year-old missed 11 games in his rookie season in 2022 while recovering from a torn ACL, and he'll miss the first six games in 2023. However, when the 22-year-old is eligible to return, he could see a high volume of perimeter snaps as a high-upside deep threat.
