Injury update on Mike Williams


by - Assoc. Editor -

Los Angeles Chargers rookie receiver Mike Williams suffered a right knee injury in the first quarter of the Chargers' 28-6 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday.

Williams will get an MRI on Friday according to multiple reports including NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport.

"The Chargers expect him to miss some more game time, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported, per a source. The good news is Williams' ACL is supposed to be intact," NFL.com said.

In 2017, Williams has 9 catches for 84 yards and had already missed the first five games of the season with a herniated disc in his back.

Last season, Williams led Clemson in receptions (98), receiving yards (1,361) and receiving touchdowns (11). He was selected No. 7 overall in the NFL Draft by the Chargers in April.

Williams totaled 177 receptions for 2,727 yards and 21 touchdowns in 1,871 snaps over 42 games (30 starts) during his time in Clemson. He ranks third in school history in receiving touchdowns, fourth in receiving yards and fifth in receptions.
