Williams re-signed with the Chargers this offseason, most recently being placed on the PUP list due to an injury he suffered in the spring. He was the No. 7 pick of the Chargers in the 2017 NFL Draft. Williams totaled 5,104 yards and 32 touchdowns across his NFL career, including two 1,000 yard seasons.
Chargers GM Joe Hortiz said WR Mike Williams is dealing with a minor injury he suffered in the spring.

The Chargers placed WR Mike Williams on the PUP list.
Fantasy Impact
Williams returned to the Chargers this offseason. He can be activated from the PUP list at any time when he passes a physical. If he remains on the PUP list when rosters are trimmed down to 53 players, he has to miss four games in the season.
The Chargers signed Mike Williams to a one-year, $6 million contract.
Fantasy Impact
Williams spent last year with the Jets and Steelers after seven seasons with the Chargers. He will be back catching passes from Justin Herbert. He'll likely be off the fantasy radar in a deep threat role.
Daniel Popper of The Athletic wrote that a Mike Williams reunion with the Chargers “makes a ton of sense.”
Fantasy Impact
Williams spent last season with the Jets and Steelers where his production was limited. He spent the previous seven seasons with the Chargers where he already has that built-in rapport with Justin Herbert.
