Los Angeles Chargers veteran wide receiver Mike Williams left Sunday’s 28-24 victory over the Minnesota Vikings early with an apparent injury that will hurt the team in the long run.
NFL Media reports the Chargers are concerned that the knee injury he suffered is significant/.
Williams will get an MRI today to determine the severity of the injury, and Ian Rapoport says there is “real fear” within the organization that it won’t bring back good news.
The 28-year-old was selected with the No. 7 overall pick by the Chargers out of Clemson in the 2017 NFL draft.
Williams was instrumental to the Chargers carrying a lead over the Vikings into the fourth quarter of Sunday’s Week 3 matchup, hauling in six passes for 110 yards and a touchdown.
