The manner in which a player opens up lions offends.
Williams is being used by the Lions in a variety of ways.
Jameson Williams, a wide receiver for the Detroit Lions, made another impact in the team’s Week 13 victory over the New Orleans Saints.
Despite only catching one pass, Williams got into the end zone on a 19-yard run in the fourth quarter. On the score, he made a spectacular dive into the end zone.
Williams’s importance has grown with each passing week. His role at the start of his career was determined by how much trust he could earn from the coaching staff.
Williams has caught 13 passes for 195 yards and two touchdowns in eight games this season. In addition, on his only rush attempt against New Orleans, he scored a 19-yard touchdown.
It’s safe to say that the trust has been earned, as both coaches and players have praised his efforts throughout the season. His touchdown run was particularly impressive to Amon-Ra St. Brown, who was fired up as Williams dove for the score.
“I loved it, it was awesome. We’re taught not to reach the ball out in the end zone. But, no one was really around him. Coach is probably gonna kill me for saying this, but I thought it was some juice,” St. Brown said. “He added some juice to the team. I was hype watching him do it. Pictures looked great, too, so I loved it. He’s having fun out there, and that’s what’s most important. He’s balling, he’s doing his thing and I’m just happy to see him finally get going and score touchdowns and do what he’s always wanted to do.”
The second-year receiver has become one of the predominant options in the offense. With runs and passes at all levels, Williams is a legitimate threat to score on every snap.
“It’s actually fun being involved in a lot of ways. Getting the ball on rushes, screens, mid crosses, deep passes, being able to do everything,” Williams explained. “It’s just being valuable, and being able to do multiple things for the offense. I feel like it opens up the offense, because I feel like all of our receivers can do that — make mid plays, short plays, long plays, take a screen, get a first down. Stuff like that. I feel like it’s very important that we can do that.”
