Lions first-rounder Jameson Williams scores a 41-yard touchdown on his first NFL catch


DETROIT — Rookie wide receiver Jameson Williams stretched his arms in the end zone with the Ford Field crowd roaring after giving quite an introduction.

His first career NFL reception resulted in a 41-yard touchdown.

In his second NFL game, after recovering from a torn ACL suffered while playing for Alabama, the Detroit Lions’ 2022 first-round pick (No. 12 overall) s came off for a deep catch from quarterback Jared Goff at 10:34. the opening quarter.

He had 10.9 yards of separation, according to NFL Next Gen Stats. That’s the most passing touchdowns the Minnesota Vikings have allowed this season and the second-most passing touchdowns the Lions have allowed this season.

Williams was targeted just once in eight snaps on his pro debut in last week’s win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
