SAN DIEGO -- Although he couldn’t participate in offseason workouts, Los Angeles Chargers receiver Mike Williams was glued to receivers coach Nick Sirianni during team drills, getting mental reps by listening to the play calls.
And in the meeting room, he sat next to veteran Keenan Allen, who’s serving as a mentor for the Clemson product to quickly learn the offense.
Williams was diagnosed with a mild disk herniation after his first practice during rookie minicamp last month and hasn’t practice since. Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said the hope is Lynn’s back quiets down enough with rest that he can begin physical therapy during the offseason and potentially be ready to go for training camp.
