Jameson Williams injury update: Detroit Lions WR dealing with shoulder
As Detroit Lions WR Jameson Williams sits, CB Nick Whiteside also will miss his second straight practice Monday, with a minor hamstring injury.
Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams is set to miss his second consecutive practice on Monday, Aug. 17 due to a shoulder injury. Coach Dan Campbell stated that the absence is precautionary and Williams is expected to recover soon. The Lions' secondary is bolstered by the involvement of fellow injured players Nick Whiteside (hamstring) and Ben Bartch (Lisfranc surgery), who are both sidelined for now.
Williams, who finished second on the team last season with 65 catches and 1,117 yards, has been instrumental as the primary deep threat, partnering with Amon-Ra St. Brown. Other rookies like Tay Martin, who took some first-team reps in Williams' absence, have shown strong performances in training camp. Lions coach Dan Campbell assured that the injuries are not serious.
