The Detroit Lions have faced challenges since their bye week, losing to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 9 despite being favored. Their offense continues to struggle on third downs, but one bright spot has been receiver Jameson Williams, who had a solid game with four catches, 66 yards, and a touchdown. However, head coach Dan Campbell has expressed a desire to get other players more involved in the offense, particularly Isaac TeSlaa and Kalif Raymond, especially in crucial third-down situations.

During a recent media appearance, Campbell mentioned that he wants both TeSlaa and Raymond to see more playing time as part of the Lions’ game plan. This could lead to fewer opportunities for Williams, who has seen a fair amount of action this season with 443 snaps—second only to Amon-Ra St. Brown, who leads the team with 446.

While St. Brown has been the focal point of the Lions’ passing attack and continues to produce at an elite level, along with tight end Sam LaPorta, the team is looking for ways to diversify their receiving corps. With LaPorta and running back Jahmyr Gibbs also contributing heavily, there’s a push to get TeSlaa and Raymond more involved.

Although Williams still ranks high in terms of snap count, the request for more involvement from other receivers suggests that fewer passes could be coming his way. This is concerning for the 24-year-old, especially since his 2025 season has been slower than expected, with only three games surpassing 60 receiving yards. While the coaching change at offensive coordinator could be a factor in his production, it’s clear that the Lions are trying to balance their offensive weapons more evenly going forward.

It will be interesting to see how these adjustments impact Williams’ role in the offense and whether his production will be affected as more players are incorporated into the game plan. Fans will certainly be watching this dynamic closely for the rest of the season.
