Jacksonville Jaguars ' rookie wide receivers Josh Cameron and CJ Williams put together strong showings during offseason programs. The two have now carried that momentum over into the start of training camp.
John Shipley of Jaguars on SI wrote that both Cameron and Williams were risers through the first three training camp practices. Shipley noted Cameron's ability to make plays in the downfield passing game.

Williams has been quite reliable, with Liam Coen mentioning that the quarterbacks "innately trust him."
All of that continued on Sunday for the two rookies, with Shipley writing that both made "impressive grabs."
So what's led to the early success that these two wideouts have had?
"Really, that they're very similar to the guys we saw on tape," said Grant Udinski after Sunday's practice. "They're tough, smart, competitive guys that work really hard. They're in here early, they're in here late. They're great to be around."
The top of the Jaguars' depth chart at wide receiver is well established with Brian Thomas Jr., Jakobi Meyers, Parker Washington, and Travis Hunter, but the back end is also becoming pretty well set with the play of Cameron and Williams.

"They play tough," Udinski added. "They play hard. All the cliches, I hate to say it, but all the cliches that you want as a coach and a player, they've brought that and more every single day. So, you love to see that and then you love to see the consistency on top of it. So, when you see them make plays, just like I talk about Parker, it's not a surprise. I don't want to take it for granted, but it's not a surprise because you see the amount of work they put in.
