""I looked at everything, as far as that. I'm going to do a better job with that. But there has been opportunities where it just didn't happen," said Morton, who is in his first year as the Lions' offensive coordinator. "It's not like we aren't going to try to target him. So that was the biggest thing. "So I looked at everything, and I failed him. That's what I told him," Morton added."
""I have to do a better job with that. But it's a two-way street. We definitely looked at that.""
""He came to me and expressed to me how he felt, but with me, I really wasn't taking it too far into thinking about it," Williams said"
Jameson Williams has been underused in Detroit's offense, totaling 17 receptions for 289 yards and two touchdowns while often drawing double teams alongside Amon-Ra St. Brown. He was targeted only twice and was catchless in a 24-9 win over Tampa Bay. Offensive coordinator John Morton admitted he failed to get Williams involved, reviewed missed opportunities during the bye week, and met with Williams privately. The coaching staff is working to create more routes and third-down opportunities to get Williams more open. Williams said he expressed how he felt to Morton but did not overthink it.
