Steve Smith Sr. commented on the ranking of Detroit Lions wide receivers Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, stating they are not among the NFL's elite duos due to Williams' ongoing development. St. Brown has made four consecutive Pro Bowls, while Williams is still refining his game, particularly his hands and route-running. Despite this, Williams had a productive previous season with over 1,100 receiving yards and is expected to improve under the new offensive coordinator. The Lions' wide receiver duo will participate in training camp starting July 28.
