Lions WR Derrick Williams To Be Used Only As A Return Specialist

Filed Under: lions, nfc, nfcnorth, rumor

The Detroit Lions are hoping third-round draft pick Derrick Williams can do a little bit of everything but, so far, he's done a whole lot of nothing. Williams didn't take part in any of the workouts during the team's recent minicamp because of a sore hamstring and the coaching staff is worried that he's going to be far behind when training camp begins. The Lions are looking at Williams as strictly a return specialist this season, something he did with some flair at Penn State.

I would have thought they would have given him a shot to play in the offense. I guess they have a better view of Northcutt than I do.
