Packers-Lions Insider Perspective

GREEN BAY, Wis. – With the Green Bay Packers hosting the Detroit Lions on Monday night, let’s go behind enemy lines with John Maakaron of SI.com’s All Lions.

1. Jamaal Williams was beloved around here for his performance, energy and attitude. What’s his role going to be for the Lions? Seemed like a timeshare with D’Andre Swift in Week 1 but that’s the 500-miles-a-way vantage point.

You are accurate in your assessment. D’Andre Swift played nearly 70% of the snaps on offense, while Williams played 35% of offensive snaps. Head coach Dan Campbell has praised Williams for being the player everybody thought he was when the decision was made to sign him.
