Dan Campbell doesn't anticipate that Jameson Williams will be ready for training camp as he heals from his knee injury.

I don't think he's prepared for training camp. Campbell did not see that. I don't think I see it. He will be ready when we do this thing the right way. I don't think you'll be able to see him on the first day.

The Lions don't want to rush his progress, so they are keeping a close eye on him.

Williams has been spotted around the practice facility for rookies and mandatory minicamps, but he hasn't been seen on the field.

Campbell said they would have a plan for him. He's going to be here for a short period of time and we know where he's going to be. We will have a plan for him.

The front office traded up to get Williams in the first round because he is expected to be a big part of the team's future. The Alabama player tore his left knee in the national championship game, but Detroit still believes in his ability.

Among those in the organization that are anticipating his return are also trying to keep him involved with the team this off-season. Staying involved is something that Goff understands.

I'm very excited." He's a special talent and I want to get him back. I want him back as soon as possible, but he's still engaged and I know they're going to make sure he's as healthy as possible. He has the script in his hand and he is doing a good job. He's a great talent but a great part of the team and I expect him to grow into his role nicely.

He said the Detroit move was a great one. He said his ability to make people miss is what jumps off the screen and his speed.

He feels like he's a part of what we're doing and I want to keep him involved. "I'm not the only one, coaches are doing that and trainers and everybody, but I think that's what happens when these guys have these long rehabs and you can feel like you're not quite a part of it." It's going to be a big part of what we're doing if he feels love and a part of it.
