Here Is How The $60 Million Receiver And Former Los Angeles Charger, Mike Williams May Land With The Carolina Panthers This Offseason.

$60 million wide receiver and former Los Angeles Charger, Mike Williams may land with the Carolina Panthers after he’s scheduled for a visit with the team this upcoming Tuesday. This isn’t the only visit he has this week, but he’s also on schedule to meet with the New York Jets on Monday, according to Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio. Williams has spent his entirety with the Chargers, notching 249 receiving yards and a touchdown last season dealing with an ACL injury that kept him out of action. Los Angeles released him earlier this week to clear the salary cap, saving them $20 million.

According to Ian Rapoport, the Chargers aren’t out of the picture yet of considering bringing Williams back to their team. Los Angeles doesn’t have a lot of weapons after trading their other star receiver, Keenan Allen to the Chicago Bears. It took this trade for the Chargers to get under the salary cap, but now the only starting receivers they have that may be reliable are Joshua Palmer and Quentin Johnson. The team also restructured the deals of their star pass-rushers, Khalil Mack and Joey Bosa after rumors of trading them.

This is the first time that Williams has been a free agent in his seven-year career so he will test the market to explore his options before he may consider returning to the Chargers. Williams missed 18 games over the last two seasons, making him a liability for the team at the time to be able to afford a player with his salary. However, when healthy he has proven to be a playmaking threat to several defenses in his playing career. He posted two seasons with 1,000-plus receiving yards.
