Williams, coming off his second 1,000-yard season in three years, is on the verge of testing the open market. While the Chargers want to sign him to a long-term deal, they seem to be willing to do whatever it takes to keep him in Los Angeles.
  • Mike Williams stats (2021): 76 receptions, 1,146 receiving yards, 9 touchdowns, 51 first downs
According to Tyler Dragon of USA Today, the Chargers “aren’t going to let Mike Williams go” and are set to use the franchise tag on him if necessary.

The deadline to apply the tag on Williams is Tuesday, meaning the front office is still pushing for an extension in the meantime. If the two sides can’t agree on terms for a long-term deal, Williams would receive a significant raise from his $15.68 million salary this past season.
