Dan Campbell defends Lions WR Jameson Williams again: ‘I know what this kid’s made of’

Amidst the news that the Detroit Police Department has submitted a request warrant for Jameson Williams to the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Officer over an incident involving a handgun on October 8, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell again defended the character of the former first-round pick.

“For me, I judge people over what’s in their heart and I know what this kid’s made of and he’s worth hanging with,” Campbell said. “So, he’s going to learn from this, he’s going to grow, he’ll be better for all of this.”

Williams was nearly arrested three weeks ago for possessing a handgun in his brother’s car.
