It’s week 13, and we have yet to see Jameson Williams make his NFL debut. Jared Goff spoke to reporters on Wednesday about Williams and his abilities. “He’s fast, he’s very fast” Goff said to the press. Going on to compare him to a former teammate, Brandin Cooks.
“I mean Brandin Cooks is probably the fastest guy I’ve played with, and it’s a different type of speed though, and again, I haven’t seen him play in a real game, but [Williams is] longer, He’s a stride guy. He’s got length. He’s got wingspan. Brandin was more just kind of a burner and has done that well for a long time, but Jameson, he can extend on guys. He can really make catches away from his body, that type of stuff. And how much he’s able to help us in the next six games, we’ll see, but certainly as a quarterback, you want him on the field as soon as possible.”

Why it matters: Jameson Williams was selected by the Detroit Lions as the No. 12 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft but has yet to play a game for the Lions. Fans and spectators alike wonder if he’ll live up to the hype. Goff’s comments offer us a glimpse of what we can hope to see from Jameson Williams when he finally takes the field.
- Williams was planned to be ready by the start of training camp, but a torn ACL has made the Detroit Lions become extra cautious with their prized possession’s debut.
- Williams practiced with the Lions this Wednesday; reports say he looked speedy.
Jared Goff Had This To Say About Williams
“It depends on what routes he’s running and how much we’re using him, but yeah, we’ll see. “It’s like that with any player. It has nothing to do with how fast he is, but any guy you want to get those reps, and we got some today, which is always helpful and trying to start getting on the same page, and hopefully get him incorporated soon.”
