Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff dialed up another long-distance connection with wide receiver Jameson Williams on Sunday, and it sent the former Alabama All-American to a career game.

Williamson had four receptions for 124 yards and one touchdown and a 2-yard game on a rushing attempt in the Lions’ 52-6 rout of the Jacksonville Jagaurs.

Williams caught a 64-yard touchdown pass from Goff as Detroit took a 35-6 lead with 12:55 left in the third quarter.

Williams became the third player in the NFL’s AFC/NFC era to have each of his first seven touchdown receptions cover at least 30 yards. Williams’ other TD receptions have covered 32, 37, 41, 45, 52 and 70 yards.

The two players who preceded Williams in achieving the feat were the New England Patriots’ Stanley Morgan in 1977-78 and Kansas City Chiefs’ J.J. Birden in 1990-92.

Williams posted the second 100-yard receiving game of his career. He had five receptions for 121 yards and one touchdown in a 26-20 victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Sept. 8.

Williams was among the 42 former Alabama players who got on the field on the 11th Sunday of the NFL’s 105th season.

Five other former Alabama players were involved in the Jacksonville-Detroit game:

• Terrion Arnold started at cornerback for the Lions. Arnold made two tackles.

• Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs ran for 69 yards and one touchdown on 11 carries and had a 54-yard reception. Gibbs scored on a 1-yard run as Detroit took a 21-3 lead with 12:26 left in the first half. Gibbs surpassed 1,000 yards from scrimmage for the 2024 season during the game. With a 23-yard run in the second quarter, Gibbs became the first Lions player to have a rushing attempt that gained at least 15 yards in nine consecutive games since Barry Sanders in 1998.
