The Detroit Lions have released a statement regarding the bodycam footage release of an incident involving star wide receiver Jameson Williams
Earlier today, WXYZ obtained video footage of officers for the Detroit Police Department pulling over a vehicle driven by Jameson Williams’ brother (Jameson was in the passenger seat) after midnight on Oct. 8.
The officers are informed that they have two guns in the vehicle. Though Jameson’s brother had a legal license for the guns, the Lions star was briefly detained after revealing that one of the guns belongs to him. Williams is then placed in handcuffs and taken into the cop car. He informs the officers that he plays for the Lions, and they eventually release him.
Per Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News, the Lions released a statement on the video involving Jameson Williams. The team said they’ve spoken to him about the matter, that he’s hired an attorney and they’ll decline furthe moment.
Per WXYZ, Detroit Police Commander Michael McGinnis expressed confusion about why Jameson Williams was released and not arrested:
“I feel that there was probable cause to arrest, and he was under arrest by the patrol officer. And because of that, he should have been conveyed to the Detroit Detention Center and processed.”
Durability has been a problem for Williams over his first three
Williams is currently serving a two-game suspension for violating the NFL’s PEDs policy, which was announced last week. Williams also served a four-game suspension last year for violating the league’s gambling policy.
Jameson Williams Is Having His Best Season In 2024
It’s too early to know if Williams will face further discipline for the Lions or the NFL for this incident. The legal process still has to play out.
Through his first six games, Williams had 17 receptions for 361 yards and three touchdowns. The Lions currently sit atop the NFC standings with a 6-1 record, but it remains to be seen if they’ll have Williams over the long run for their Super Bowl quest.
Durability has been a problem for Williams over his first three NFL seasons. The 2022 first-round pick missed most of his rookie season recovering from a torn ACL that he suffered in Alabama’s national championship game loss

In the wake of quarterback Deshaun Watson’s miserable season-opening outing against the Dallas Cowboys, Browns fans speculated if he had a burner account to defend himself.
Internet detectives zoned in on the X account of one Leroy Bickerstaff (@LeroyBickers4), who has posted glowing remarks about Watson despite a disappointing start to the season.
That was then, and this is now.
It appears that fans have found a separate account that is now being linked to Deshaun Watson.
The account, @VPritchs, suddenly began defending the Browns quarterback during halftime of Sunday’s game, and many accused the quarterback of running the page and tweeting from the locker room.

The Cleveland Browns had multiple opportunities in the fourth quarter to rally for a win for the second straight week, but they ultimately fell short.
Deshaun Watson said to blame himself after Cleveland blew an early 10-0 lead and lost 20-16 to the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday.
The loss dropped the team to 1-3 on the year.
Deshaun Watson Is Once Again Dealing With More Off The Filed Trouble Amid Rough Season
Deshaun Watson and the Browns lost yet again on Sunday, Falling to the Raiders, 20-16, in Las Vegas.
He finished the game by completing 24 of 32 passes for 176 yards, a touchdown, and an interception.
Watson’s woes on the field can also be attributed to what he is dealing with off the field, as another woman is accusing him of sexual assault stemming from an alleged October 2020 incident in a new lawsuit filed earlier this month.
He was previously suspended for 11 games in 2022 and fined $5 million by the league amid accusations of sexual misconduct by massage therapists.
Twenty-three of the 24 civil lawsuits filed against Watson were settled in 2022, according to ESPN.

Travis Kelce is proud to have girlfriend Taylor Swift by his side, and he doesn’t mind that the whole world is watching.
Travis Kelce knows just how obsessed the world is with his relationship.
“I’m very aware,” Kelce said when asked whether he understands the “impact” his romance with Taylor Swift was having on the NFL.
“Obviously, this is mostly because Taylor’s in my life now and we got her [to be] part of Chiefs Kingdom,” he explained in a resurfaced interview with sports reporter Laura Okmin ahead of the Super Bowl.
“And sure enough, that brought an entire entourage of human beings who just love to support her and love to support everything that she’s about.”
He used an incredible word to describe their relationship.
“With that being said, I do, you know, have a guarded approach to it,” he explained before Super Bowl 58. “But at the same time, I know what me and Taylor have is special, so I get [the interest].”
Taylor Swift was spotted at 13 of Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs football games this past season, first popping up in a box at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri on Sept. 24, 2023. The team won 10 of the 13 games at which she’s been in attendance.
That also included the team winning playoff games over the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens, and then the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl.
Kelce finished the Super Bowl with nine receptions for 93 yards, including a crucial catch in overtime.
The 34-year-old slowed down slightly in 2023, finishing with 93 catches for 984 yards and five touchdowns. It should be noted he did miss two games, Week 1 due to injury and Week 17 as he chose to sit out with the Chiefs not playing for anything.
