The good vibes of the Chargers’ first win unfortunately couldn’t last long.
According to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, wide receiver Mike Williams suffered a torn ACL against the Vikings. The injury was confirmed by an MRI on Monday morning.
In 2+ games, Williams had caught 19 passes for 249 yards and one touchdown before the injury.

Without Williams, the Chargers will have to rely on 2023 first-round pick Quentin Johnston to play a larger role within the offense much sooner than the team likely wanted him to.
