DETROIT -- Inside the Detroit Lions’ training facility, Jamaal Williams couldn’t stop staring at himself for nearly an hour.
Seeing himself draped in the team’s Honolulu blue-and-silver uniform for the first time on media day was a surreal experience as the fifth-year running back prepares for his first season in Motown.
“I’ve always been jealous of this blue and this gray,” Williams said, smiling.
After playing his college career at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah, then spending his first four years as a Packer in Green Bay, Wisc., Williams is seizing this opportunity in Detroit.
