Campbell said there’s a “good chance” that Williams’ injury keeps him out the rest of the preseason. Williams suffered a right hamstring injury during a joint practice with the Jacksonville Jaguars on Wednesday.
Williams will miss the first six games of the 2023 season after being suspended for violating the NFL’s gambling policy. The Alabama product is eligible to come off suspension for Week 7 against the Baltimore Ravens on October 22.
Selected by the Lions with the No. 12 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, Williams missed the first three months of the season due to a torn ACL suffered in college. He made his NFL debut on December 4 against the Green Bay Packers.
Wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown also suffered an ankle injury, but Campbell believes his star wideout will return next week before the final preseason game against the Carolina Panthers.
