Lions WR Jameson Williams Scores First Career Touchdown

View the original article to see embedded media.

One week ago, Lions receiver Jameson Williams made his NFL debut following a lengthy recovery from a torn ACL he suffered in the College Football Playoff championship game. On Sunday, the promising rookie from Alabama reminded the pro football world just how explosive he can be with a sensational highlight against the Vikings.

With the Lions facing second-and-5 on their second drive of the game, Williams, the No. 12 pick in this year’s draft, found himself wide open and on the receiving end of a 41-yard Jared Goff bomb for a touchdown. The catch not only gave Detroit an early 7-0 lead over its NFC North rival, but it also marked the first reception of Williams’s career.
