The Detroit Lions got a massive win on Sunday, traveling to US Bank Stadium and knocking off their division rivals in the Minnesota Vikings. Not only did the win move Detroit to 5-1 and in first place in the NFC North, they’re currently the number one overall seed in the NFC.
However, some troubling news has surfaced out of Detroit late Monday night.
Breaking: Lions Lose Key Starter To Stunning Suspension After Win Over Vikings
According to Detroit reporter Eric Woodyard:
Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams is facing a two-game suspension for violating the NFL’s Performance-Enhancing Substances (PES) policy, sources told ESPN.
The suspension is expected to be accepted by Williams, according to ESPN.com’s Woodyard. As a result, he will be sidelined until Week 10 against Houston. The primary backups to Amon-Ra St. Brown at wide receiver will be Tim Patrick and Kalif Raymond. Here are the two games Williams would miss:
- Vs Titans
- @ Packers
Losing Williams for two games, especially a big divisional opponent, is tough. Here is a look at Williams’ stats this year:
