What does Mike Williams’ Injury Mean for the Chargers?
Williams had an MRI on Monday in Los Angeles that confirmed what many believed to be the case Sunday when he left the game.
While the Chargers got the win, it’s a big blow to that offense. Williams and Keenan Allen combined for 25 receptions and nearly 350 yards receiving in the win. While Allen is still a top WR in the league, he’s struggled to stay healthy in past seasons. So the Williams loss significantly effects the Chargers depth at receiver.
Los Angeles desperately needed the win at Minnesota, which they got. They now have a good chance to improve to 2-2 next week when they host the Raiders.
