The Detroit Lions have waited patiently for Jameson Williams to fully unleash his potential — and Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings might finally be that moment.
With the bye week behind them, the Lions’ offense is rested, reloaded, and ready to attack. Williams has been flashing signs of the speed and playmaking that made him a first-round pick, but this feels like the week he reintroduces himself to the league.
The Vikings’ defense has been shaky against deep threats, and Jared Goff knows how to find his burners when the moment calls for it. Expect offensive coordinator Ben Johnson to dial up a few early shots to get Williams involved — and if he connects on one, Ford Field could erupt.
Williams has heard the chatter, the criticism, and the doubts. But with Detroit pushing to stay among the NFC’s elite, this matchup sets the stage for his long-awaited statement game.
