Detroit Lions downgrade DT Nick Williams to OUT for Week 2 game vs. Packers

The Detroit Lions will be missing another starter in a key Week 2 matchup versus the Green Bay Packers, as defensive tackle Nick Williams has been ruled out of Sunday’s game, adding to the ever-growing list of wounded Lions.

With Williams out of the lineup, Detroit is set to be without three of their Week 1 starters on defense in Week 2. Cornerback Desmond Trufant is set to miss the game as well, while nickel Justin Coleman is currently on injured reserve. Detroit will also be without two key offensive pieces in wide receiver Kenny Golladay and guard Joe Dahl.
