RedRamage Posted October 22, 2024 Author Posted October 22, 2024 https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/41934097/sources-lions-wr-jameson-williams-facing-2-game-suspension Quote Williams said he was disappointed with the current suspension but that he has "no choice but to take it on the chin." "I'm in good spirits just ready to get back with [my] brothers ASAP," Williams told ESPN via text. Quote
RedRamage Posted October 22, 2024 Author Posted October 22, 2024 I think Jamo is the poster child for the idea that these are young kids who gotta grow up. I don't think Jamo is a bad person... I don't think he engages in activity that's "wrong" or things he's "above the law" or anything like that. I do think he's a little immature and needs to not make impulsive decisions... and I think this is true, to some degree, for MOST guys his age. On the field I see a guy who's learning and improving. I see a guy who is MORE than willing to do the "unsung" part of his job like blocking down field. I do see maybe a bit of immaturity in terms of celebrations or there was a line he said during one of the "mic'd up videos" about him saying no one could catch him because he's faster than everyone... but those are pretty minor things so I don't see an issue with him as a player. Just needs to grow up a little bit off the field and make some better choices imho. Quote
RandyMarsh Posted October 22, 2024 Posted October 22, 2024 It's too bad the GB game isn't this week cause we may have been able to appeal the suspension which could've effectively delayed it a week but now even if they appealed it would be done by next week and he'd have to miss that game anyway.

MichiganCardinal Posted October 22, 2024 Posted October 22, 2024 Don’t they owe Jamo two games anyway? His gambling that got him suspended six games (later reduced to four) is now just a two-game suspension. They should just call it even. 2 Quote
Motown Bombers Posted October 22, 2024 Posted October 22, 2024 He didn't serve 6 games. They reduced his sentence to 4. Quote

Right but MC is saying the punishment for the "crime" is now 2 games, so he served 4 game on what would now be a 2 game punishment so he kinda/sorta served 2 more games that he should have. His punishment for this "crime" should be time served. 😉 Quote

That would be so Jamo to get suspended for fake weed when the real stuff is legal. Kratom is not synthetic weed. It's totally different (and it's legal, but a stimulant). A lot of people who work out have started using it regularly. That's why it's my guess. Edited October 22, 2024 by Motor City Sonics Quote
MichiganCardinal Posted October 23, 2024 Posted October 23, 2024 This still hasn’t been made official by the league. Given that Jamo already made a comment on it, there’s clearly something going on, but the delay could mean any number of things. Can’t help but feeling it’ll somehow screw the Lions though. Either delayed so he misses the Packers and Texans instead of Titans and Packers, or a four- or six-game suspension instead of the original two that was reported. Quote
Hongbit Posted October 23, 2024 Posted October 23, 2024 He should get the 2 games credit for extra time served for the gambling charge. Quote
slothfacekilla Posted October 23, 2024 Posted October 23, 2024 Have they said what it was for? Based on the suspension length my guess was adderall without letting the league know he has a prescription or something like that? Quote
MichiganCardinal Posted October 23, 2024 Posted October 23, 2024 Interesting comments from Campbell in his presser. Said last year (presumably after the suspension), they hung a rope to Jamo and were taking off with or without him. Said he started to climb the rope and joined them, but may have lost his grip a little. Said he has no doubt he’ll start climbing again. Sounded pretty certain they wouldn’t have him on Sunday. Quote

Hongbit Posted October 23, 2024 Posted October 23, 2024 If he’s going to miss two games, please make it TEN and GB and not GB and HOU. 2 Quote
Sports_Freak Posted October 23, 2024 Posted October 23, 2024 Elevating Tim Patrick to #2 receiver? He's looked pretty good as a possession receiver and he made a few key blocks. The Lions will survive. Quote
RandyMarsh Posted October 23, 2024 Posted October 23, 2024 The thing about Jamo is that even in games where he doesn't produce he makes such an impact on offense being nothing more than a decoy just because of his speed so it's going to be a big loss. Shouldn't be much of a problem against the Titans but against GB it could be the difference between winning and losing. Gonna need Raymond to step up and LaPorta to return to 2023 form. Quote
