With the 2025 NFL Draft just a day away, fans are on edge due to persistent trade rumors involving standout receiver Jameson Williams.
As the team is expected to pick up his fifth-year option, both analysts and fans have been debating his long-term role in Detroit.
While Kerby Joseph and Aidan Hutchinson are locking in lucrative contract extensions, Williams’ future remains more unclear.
Supporters were excited to see a smiling Williams in a photo from the Allen Park facility. The team’s social media added the caption, “we Gucci over here.”
Williams had shared cryptic posts on social media earlier in the week, adding more fuel to questions about his happiness with the franchise.
Drafted 12th overall, Williams has had a good rapport with teammates and coaches since entering the league.
The Lions have remained patient with the speedster, even after he faced suspensions for violating league policies.
After being challenged to rise to the No. 2 receiver role, the ex-Alabama star posted his first 1,000-yard season and became one of the NFL’s premier deep threats.
At league meetings, GM Brad Holmes said Williams is only beginning to tap into his full potential.
“I really think there’s more to his game,” Holmes said. “So, it just seems like the right move to make sure we keep him here.”
