Jameson Williams, who was once suspended for violating the NFL's gambling protocols, is reportedly set to serve a two-game ban for breaking its performance-enhancing policy.
Dan Campbell said on Tuesday morning that he is preparing to not have Jameson Williams for the next couple of games. That's because the Detroit Lions wide receiver is reportedly set to be suspended for two games after violating the league's performance-enhancing policy. 'I can't really say anything about it until the league gives judgment, and it comes out on their end. I'm not supposed to really comment on it.
This would not be Williams' first suspension - he missed six games last season after violating the league's gambling policy. But Campbell is confident that his Lions, who have been red-hot on offense, won't miss a beat. 'And we'll be fine, that's why we've got and and LaPorta and T.P. and Allen Robinson, among other things with David Montgomery and Gibbs. We'll be fine. We'll move on. This thing comes down, if it does, when it comes down, we'll be fine.
The bulk of his yardage comes from his big-play ability thanks to his breakaway speed; he has receptions of 70, 52, 50, 37, 36, 27 and 24 yards. Surely, Jared Goff will miss his de-facto No. 2 receiver and best chance at a lightning strike – but Goff has been playing some of his best football anyway. As the Lions are 5-1, he's right in the MVP race with a 73.6 completion percentage, 1,610 yards and 10 touchdowns. He leads the NFL in yards gained per attempt, largely due to Williams.
Thankfully for Detroit, it may not matter too much that Williams is out this Sunday, as they'll face the Tennessee Titans at home. But the following weekend, an NFC North matchup in Green Bay figures to be even tougher than it already would have been.
