Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has dropped his appeal of his two-game suspension from the NFL and will begin serving it immediately. Ian Rapoport of NFL Media was the first to report this news regarding Williams.
The former Crimson Tide wide receiver had been facing this suspension for several weeks, but now he seems to be turning the page on the situation. This will mark the second time that the NFL has suspended Williams. He was suspended for four games in 2023 for breaking the league’s policy on betting.
He will miss games against the Tennessee Titans and Green Bay Packers before returning on November 10 against the Houston Texans.
Williams was in the middle of a breakout season for the Lions and was emerging as a primary target for quarterback Jared Goff. He had finally found trust with the coaching staff, especially offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, which allowed the Lions’ offense to become more explosive.
The Lions will now lean on receivers Kalif Raymond and Tim Patrick to fill his role within the offense. They do not have the same skillset, but both have flashed at times this week, with Raymond scoring a critical touchdown in Week 7 against the Vikings.
