Jameson Williams

Lions offensive coordinator John Morton said it’s “going to be a breakout year” for Jameson Williams.

Morton said he’d never “been around someone that fast,” then quickly corrected himself to note that Jahmyr Gibbs is also that fast. Williams came on strong last year with a 58/1001/7 receiving line, but offensive coordinator praise could mean even more targets are coming. It would likely come at the expense of Amon-Ra St. Brown’s production if Williams were to truly break out, though there’s plenty for St. Brown to give and still be a top-flight fantasy wideout. It’s risky to read too much into statements like this in the offseason, but the new offensive coordinator telling you he thinks it’ll be a breakout year for Williams is certainly noteworthy.
