Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams returned from his four-game suspension in Week 5, catching two passes on three targets for just two yards. He registered a 47% snap share but only an 11% target share. It was more of the same for the 2022 first-round pick, so he should not be trusted in fantasy lineups. Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) is expected to make his return in Week 6 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after missing Week 5, but even if he does not, Williams should be viewed as nothing more than a boom-or-bust flex play in deep leagues. Hopefully, the speedster will have fantasy value at some point, but it's far from a guarantee. His best value is likely as a bargain-bin DFS play.--Jackson Sparks - RotoBaller

Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes said the team never entertained a trade of wide receiver Jameson Williams during the first round of the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday night. Not only did Detroit not trade the 24-year-old Ohio State alum, but they stayed in the No. 28 overall spot in the first round on Thursday and took defensive tackle Tyleik Williams out of Ohio State. Williams is heading into the final year of his rookie deal in 2025, but the Lions are expected to pick up his fifth-year option for the 2026 season by the deadline on May 1. In his third year in the NFL, Williams broke out to the tune of a 58-1,001-7 line on 58 receptions in 15 regular-season games (11 starts). It could be tough for the former first-rounder to top that production in 2025 with offensive coordinator Ben Johnson gone, making Williams a boom/bust fantasy target as a home run threat whenever he touches the football.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

According to Detroit Lions general manager Brad Holmes, the team expects to exercise wide receiver Jameson Williams' fifth-year option. "We're, you know, most likely gonna be doing that," said the Lions' GM. Holmes also noted that the 24-year-old is "still scratching the surface" and "has more in him." Williams finally put it all together last season, notching 1,001 yards and seven touchdowns over 58 receptions, elevating his play to his first-round price. The Alabama product was a superb deep threat for the Lions last season, adding an extra element to its offense. If Holmes' shining endorsement is genuine, then it's possible that Williams has another gear and could level up again if he works on his craft. The speedster is currently RotoBaller's WR49 in ADP (114 overall) but finished last season as the PPR WR22.--Alex Ciulla

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams will not face discipline from the NFL for carrying an unlicensed gun, according to NFL insider Adam Schefter. The 23-year-old avoided criminal charges after a gun was discovered by police during a traffic stop for speeding. Williams possessed a gun without a concealed pistol license to carry but later obtained one. Williams has been suspended by the NFL in the past for gambling, but he will not face any suspension for this incident. Williams, a former first-round pick, posted career highs in receptions (58), receiving yards (1,001), and receiving touchdowns (seven) in 2024.--Jackson Sparks - RotoBaller

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams caught just one of his four targets for 19 receiving yards during Saturday's Divisional Round loss to the Washington Commanders. However, he salvaged his fantasy performance with a 61-yard rushing touchdown on a trick play. Unfortunately, not all of Williams' trickery resulted in successful plays. He also attempted a pass in the contest and was ultimately intercepted. All in all, the speedy receiver's fantasy value was salvaged by the trick-play touchdown, which is a reflection of the explosiveness he showed during the season. He has a high ceiling and low floor in fantasy football, making him an appealing WR3/FLEX option with weekly WR1 upside. He actually came close to notching a second big touchdown on Saturday, but he wasn't quite able to haul in an overthrown pass from Jared Goff. Williams should remain the Lions' No. 2 receiver alongside Amon-Ra St. Brown in 2025.--Andersen Pickard - RotoBaller
