Jameson Williams - Page 18 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Impact After injuring his ankle during the Lions' Week 17 loss at Dallas, Williams kicked off Week 18 prep with an absence from drills. It continued Thursday and Friday, but he was listed with an illness on both occasions and eventually was ruled out for this past Sunday's regular-season finale against the Vikings. Coach Dan Campbell told Kyle Meinke of MLive.com on Monday that Williams was expected to practice this week and should be OK for Sunday night's wild-card matchup with the Rams, and after Wednesday's uncapped session, the wide receiver is in the clear to return to action. In eight appearances since Detroit's Week 9 bye, Williams averaged 15.7 yards on his 18 catches, notched three carries for 29 yards and scored two touchdowns.

Practicing to start week Williams (ankle/illness) is practicing Wednesday, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

Impact Williams sprained his ankle Week 17 and missed Week 18, with coach Dan Campbell then saying Monday that the wide receiver should return for the start of the playoffs. His participation Wednesday confirms Williams is on the right track to make it back for Sunday's game against the Rams.

Expected to play versus Los Angeles Coach Dan Campbell said Monday that Williams (ankle/illness) is expected to be good to play next Sunday against the Rams, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

Impact Williams missed practice last Wednesday with an ankle injury and then came down with an illness Thursday. He missed the Week 18 finale against the Vikings but is expected to practice this week leading up to Sunday's playoff game. Williams could take on a bigger target workload if Sam LaPorta (knee) is unable to play.

Ruled out for Week 18 Williams (ankle/illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Minnesota.

Impact Williams suffered an ankle injury early in the fourth quarter of last Saturday's 20-19 loss to Dallas and never returned to the game. He didn't practice this week, and the Lions never figured to push things given that their Week 18 result is highly unlikely to have an impact on their playoff seed (currently No. 3). It's possible some of the teams healthy players are held out or rested, and that combined with Williams being absent should lead to at least one of the team's depth receivers (Kalif Raymond, Donovan Peoples-Jones, Antoine Green) playing a lot of snaps. Williams, meanwhile, will hope to make it back for a home game in the wild-card round.

Comes down with illness Williams (ankle/illness) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice.

Impact Williams' listed absence Wednesday was due to the ankle injury that forced him out of this past Saturday's game at Dallas, but an illness now is afflicting the second-year wide receiver as well. Per Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com, coach Dan Campbell termed the ankle issue "nothing significant" Monday, but the new ailment clouds Williams' status as the Lions make their way through Week 18 prep. Friday's practice report could be telling for Williams' odds to suit up Sunday against the Vikings.

Starts Week 18 prep with DNP Williams (ankle) won't practice Wednesday, per coach Dan Campbell, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Impact Campbell downplayed Williams' injury Monday, but it's significant enough to keep the wide receiver off the practice field Wednesday. The coach says that the team plans to play its starters as usual against the Vikings in Sunday's regular-season finale, but injured players could get the week off to heal up for the playoffs, so Williams could be held out as a precaution even if the injury isn't especially significant.

Has career-high five catches Sunday Williams gathered in five of six targets for 43 yards during Sunday's 30-24 win in Minnesota.

Impact Williams has struggled for consistent results in his second pro campaign, but he's now put together a cumulative 9-90-0 line on 13 targets over the last two contests. The 13 looks from Goff marks the most usage in any two-game stretch of Williams' brief career, which may portend his current standing in the Lions offense with just two weeks remaining in the regular season. Fellow wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown again dominated Goff's attention to the tune of 12-106-1 on 14 targets, so Williams will need to take advantage of the handful of times he gets the ball in his hands in order to produce Saturday, Dec. 30 at Dallas.
