STACKED’s take

Positive signalMatchup

Williams' single-high EPA ranks sixth; Gardner-Johnson's deep alignment creates deep-ball opportunity.

Jameson Williams has strong single-high safety matchup opportunity against C.J. Gardner-Johnson, who aligned deep as traditional safety on 86.3% of snaps in Week 1. Williams' 2025 single-high safety stats: 41 receptions (16th), 684 yards (eighth), 16.7 yards per reception (ninth), 4 touchdowns (ninth), +58.93 total receiving EPA (sixth). Lions offensive coordinator Petzing can use pre-snap motion, play action, and route combinations to manipulate Gardner-Johnson and put him in a bind. Williams has opportunity to find redemption from last week's dropped deep ball and make the Bills pay with catch-and-run opportunities over the middle or deep post routes.
