Jameson Williams Looking Good Early in Camp

Monday, July 21, 1:10 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has been showcasing improved hands and route-running at the early portion of training camp this summer, per DetroitSportsPodcast. Williams' fantasy stock is on the rise heading into his fourth NFL season, even if offensive coordinator Ben Johnson has been replaced by John Morton. The former Ohio State star broke out in 2024 to the tune of 58 catches for 1,001 yards and seven touchdowns on 91 targets in 15 regular-season games (11 starts), adding 11 carries for 61 yards and another score. It was nice to see after the 24-year-old battled injuries and a suspension his first two years in the NFL. Fantasy managers now must decide if 2024 was Williams' ceiling or just the beginning. Consistent targets will probably be hard to come by given all the high-end offensive weapons in Detroit's offense, so Williams could be a boom/bust WR2/3 in fantasy in 2025.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba With Massive Dud In Week 18

Sunday, January 5, 8:21 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught four passes for nine yards in Week 18 against the Los Angeles Rams. Smith-Njigba was invisible in a game in which quarterback Geno Smith threw four touchdown passes. What's worse, JSN had a chance to break wide receiver Tyler Lockett's single-season team receptions record. He fell one reception short of breaking the record. Overall, Smith-Njigba had a great season. He will finish with 1,130 receiving yards and six touchdowns on 100 receptions. Fantasy managers should be ecstatic about Smith-Njigba heading into next season. He is clearly Smith's No. 1 target, and he has displayed that he has the talent to be a high-end producer for fantasy. While his Week 18 was disappointing, the future is bright for JSN.
