Williams caught seven of nine targets for 134 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 41-34 loss to the Rams. Williams continued his recent string of WR1 performances by nearly matching the season-best line of 7-144-1 he produced against the Packers in Week 13. The Alabama product is averaging 95.3 yards per game since Detroit's Week 8 bye, and that includes a zero-catch dud against the Giants. Amon-Ra St. Brown (13-164-2) also feasted against the Rams' secondary, proving that this passing attack can generate two fantasy stars simultaneously. Williams needs just 64 receiving yards against the Steelers next Sunday in order to reach the 1,000-yard plateau in consecutive seasons.

Williams secured seven of nine targets for 96 yards in the Lions' 44-30 win over the Cowboys on Thursday night. He also rushed once for seven yards. Despite Amon-Ra St. Brown managing to play through his ankle issue, Williams put together a second straight impressive performance. The speedy fourth-year pro tied with Jahmyr Gibbs for the team lead in receptions and with St. Brown for the same slotting in targets, while setting the pace in receiving yards. Williams has drawn 19 targets over the last two games while recording at least 88 receiving yards in four straight, affording him plenty of momentum heading into a Week 15 road showdown against the Rams on Sunday, Dec. 14.

Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) isn't expected to play in Week 14 against Dallas, which makes Williams a must-start Fantasy receiver in the majority of leagues. St. Brown left Week 13 against Green Bay, and Williams took off with seven catches for 144 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. He's now scored at least 16.6 PPR points in four of his past five games, and I would start him against the Cowboys even if St. Brown was healthy. Dallas is No. 1 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers, and 15 guys have scored at least 12 PPR points against the Cowboys this season. Isaac TeSlaa should be considered a sleeper with St. Brown injured, and TeSlaa scored a touchdown against the Packers after St. Brown left the game.

Williams caught seven of 10 targets for 144 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 31-24 loss to the Packers. he also lost five yards on his only carry. Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) left the game in the first quarter and didn't return, pushing Williams into the WR1 role for the Lions. The fourth-year player didn't disappoint, setting new season highs in catches and receiving yards while hauling in his fourth TD in the last five games on a 22-yard toss from Jared Goff in the second quarter. Per Colton Pouncy of The Athletic, coach Dan Campbell suggested after the game that while St. Brown's ankle injury wasn't believed to be too serious he could miss a game or two, so Williams could head into a Week 14 clash with the Cowboys' shaky secondary as the clear top downfield option for Goff. On the season, Williams has delivered a 38-706-6 line on 61 targets through 12 contests.

Williams failed to haul in any of his three targets during the Lions' 34-27 overtime loss to the Giants on Sunday. Williams logged at least four catches, six targets and a touchdown in each of his last three games prior to Week 12. However, the fourth-year wideout wasn't able to carry that momentum into Sunday's game, as Jared Goff frequently looked toward Amon-Ra St. Brown (12 targets) and Jahmyr Gibbs (11 targets) in the passing game. Williams appeared to get on the board with a 36-yard catch early in the third quarter, but it was negated by a penalty on offensive lineman Graham Glasgow. Sunday marked the second time this season that Williams did not record a catch, and he'll look to bounce back in the Lions' Thanksgiving Day game against the Packers.
