Williams is coming off a breakout 2024 season in which he posted his first career 1,000-yard campaign, finishing with 8 touchdowns and cementing himself as a key weapon in Detroit’s high-powered offense. His combination of speed, explosiveness, and big-play ability made him one of the league’s premier young talents, and the Lions made sure to pay him accordingly.
The extension ensures Williams will remain a cornerstone of Detroit’s offensive future as the team looks to build on its NFC North dominance and push deeper into the postseason. With Amon-Ra St. Brown and Williams under contract, the Lions boast one of the most dynamic receiving duos in the NFL.
