Jameson Williams dealing with non-serious shoulder injury, says Lions coach
Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell has confirmed that wide receiver Jameson Williams is dealing with a shoulder injury. The news follows Williams' unexpected absence from Sunday's padded practice session.
Campbell stated that the injury is not considered serious and indicated that Williams is expected to be “good to go.” While a specific timetable for his return was not provided, the coach's comments aim to alleviate concerns regarding the player's availability for the upcoming season. Williams is a key component of the Lions' offense, coming off a season where he recorded 1,117 receiving yards and seven touchdowns.
Other injuries in the Lions' camp include cornerback Nick Whiteside, who is sidelined with a hamstring injury, and offensive lineman Ben Bartch, who is also unable to practice.
