If Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams gets off to another slow start in 2024, the reigning NFC North champions could decide to move him ahead of the trade deadline.
The Lions traded up to select Jameson Williams with the No. 12 pick in 2022. The Alabama product missed most of his rookie year recovering from a torn ACL in the 2022 College Football Playoff National Championship, a 33-18 loss to Alabama.
Williams appeared in six games during the 2022 season, but he only had one catch on nine targets — a 41-yard touchdown. Williams missed seven games in 2023, four of them due to a suspension for violating the NFL’s gambling policy.
In 10 games last season, Williams only had 10 receptions for 354 yards and two touchdowns. Despite his inconsistent production, the Lions reached the NFC Championship Game and narrowly lost a heartbreaker 34-31 to the San Francisco 49ers.
It’s hard to envision Jameson Williams emerging as a star in Detroit, simply given the wealth of weapons for Jared Goff, namely Amon-Ra St. Brown, Sam LaPorta, Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery.

If Williams hits the trade block, the rebuilding New England Patriots should be keen to make a move for him.
New England hasn’t had a 1,000-yard receiver since 2019, when Julian Edelman hit the mark. Rookie Demario Douglas was their leading receiver with only 561 yards on 49 touchdowns. There’s just no way Drake Maye and/or Jacoby Brissett will produce with this set of wide receivers.
Jameson Williams could easily slot in as the new No. 1 WR in New England with no clear-cut competition on the depth chart.
What Patriots Should Offer For Jameson Williams
Recent draft busts like Zach Wilson, Jeff Okudah, Trey Lance, Mac Jones, CJ Henderson and Isaiah Simmons fetched mid-to-late round draft picks. Jerry Jeudy, a 2020 first-round pick, was dealt to the Cleveland Browns for two late-round picks earlier this offseason.
Jameson Williams hasn’t hit his ceiling yet, so the Lions should be willing to deal him at a reasonable price. A 2025 fourth-round pick and 2026 fifth-round pick feels like a fair price for Williams, who would benefit greatly from a fresh start — especially on a young team in need of a true WR1.
NFL Fans Are Freaking Out Over Jalen Hurts And His Jacked Up Arms After Photo Leaks From Eagles Practice

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has clearly put in the work in the gym this offseason, and social media has taken note of it.
On the Eagles’ team website, Jalen Hurts is listed at 6-foot-1 and 223 pounds. The 2022 MVP runner-up decided to bulk up even further this offseason, adding plenty more muscle in his arms.
The @PHLEaglesNation X/Twitter account shared a viral photo of a shredded Hurts:

Hurts put together one of the greatest single-seasons in recent memory during the 2022 campaign. He threw for 3,701 yards, 22 touchdowns and only six interceptions to go along with 760 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns.
The 2020 second-round pick finished second in MVP voting behind Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who beat Hurts’ Eagles in Super Bowl 57.
Though Jalen Hurts set new career bests last season in passing yards (3,858), passing touchdowns (23) and rushing touchdowns (15), he also tossed a career-high 15 interceptions.
Philadelphia jumped out to a 10-1 start that included statement wins over the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills. However, they dropped five of their final six games to finish 11-6, handing the NFC East to the Dallas Cowboys on a silver platter.
The Eagles’ late-season collapse culminated with a humiliating 32-9 blowout loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the Wild Card Round.
Jalen Hurts & Eagles Are Poised To Bounce Back In 2024
The Eagles simply have too much talent and star power to unravel again the way they did season ago. Head coach Nick Sirianni and GM Howie Roseman wasted little time ensuring that it wouldn’t happen again.
Kellen Moore and Vic Fangio, two of the best at their respective positions, were hired to take over as the offensive coordinator and defensive coordinator, respectively. Roseman also signed superstar RB Saquon Barkley to bolster the rushing game.
On defense, Roseman brought in Bryce Huff and old friend CJ Gardner-Johnson before drafting two stud corners in Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean. With all this talent, Philly should re-emerge as an NFC powerhouse in 2024.
