One pass to Jameson Williams is all it took for the draft day trade with the Lions to bite the Vikings.
After the Vikings failed on 4th-and-1, the Lions got the ball in Minnesota and two plays later Williams ran free down the middle of the field for a wide open touchdown of 41 yards.

It was Williams’ first career catch. He made his NFL debut last week after spending the entire year rehabbing a torn ACL he suffered while at Alabama in the national championship game.
Minnesota could’ve drafted Williams with the 12th pick, but new GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah traded it to Detroit.
The player the Vikings drafted with the No. 32 pick was safety Lewis Cine, who is out for the season with a broken leg.
