Chargers coach says first-round pick Mike Williams is ‘getting behind’ due to back injury

The Los Angeles Chargers have had absolutely no luck in recent years with a number of players missing time due to both injuries and contract disputes. The troubling trend continued this offseason with first-round pick Mike Williams suffering a back injury on the first day of rookie minicamp.

Williams has been sidelined ever since, and his head coach Anthony Lynn is starting to get concerned.

“I’d like to see him out there next week because he’s getting behind right now, and we’ve got to get him back out on the field,” Lynn said, via ESPN.
