Mike Williams Could Be Solid In Week 3

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams could have a solid Week 3 performance against the Minnesota Vikings. Williams missed some time in Week 1 with an injury, but he's still put up 20 fantasy points through the first two weeks. Week 3 could be an even bigger week as Justin Herbert and the Chargers offense take on the Vikings zone defense. Keenan Allen is the clear number one in this passing game, but Williams is right behind him and should be the target of more of Herbert's deep balls going forward. Williams is a solid WR2 for this matchup, with some upside.

Mike Williams Practices In Full Wednesday

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (ankle) was listed on the first injury report of Week 3 on Wednesday, but he was able to put in a full practice. Williams played 90 percent of the offensive snaps in the Week 2 overtime loss to the Tennessee Titans and caught a healthy eight passes on a team-high 13 targets for 83 yards, so we think he'll end up being just fine to play in a Week 3 road game against the Minnesota Vikings. The 28-year-old could go off for fantasy managers this weekend as the Bolts look to get their first win of the season against a Vikings defense that has been shredded so far by opposing offenses through two weeks.

Mike Williams Makes Eight Catches In Week 2

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams made eight catches in a Week 2 overtime loss to the Tennessee Titans. Williams led the team in targets with 13 and ended up tied for the lead in catches with eight. He gained 83 scoreless yards but looked healthy and was a clear top target for quarterback Justin Herbert. With the Chargers unable to get anything going on the ground, Williams and Keenan Allen each caught eight passes. Williams had a good game, but Allen's two touchdown catches separated him from Williams in fantasy scores. Still, Williams looked good and should be a WR3 option with upside most weeks.

Mike Williams - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams should have a stronger performance in Week 2. He missed some time in Week 1 while being checked by the Chargers medical team, but ended up with four catches for 45 yards. The Chargers focused on the running game in that matchup, but should throw more often in Week 2 against a weak Titans secondary. Williams is a solid WR3 option with nice upside.

Mike Williams Hopes For A Boom In Week 1

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams has been a boom-or-bust fantasy asset for most of his career, but he'll look to get the season off with a boom in Week 1 against the Miami Dolphins. The last time Williams played against the Dolphins, he caught six passes for 116 yards and a touchdown, having no trouble against a middling Dolphins defensive secondary. With Justin Herbert under center and other Chargers pass catchers healthy, targets may not come in bunches for Williams, but he should find himself open and will be a serious red zone threat. He settles in as a WR3 in Week 1, but with plenty of upside.

Mike Williams Playing More In The Slot

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams is moving around a lot more so far in training camp, including playing in the slot and other inside alignments. Williams has already proven himself as one of the elite outside receivers in the league, and with his big frame, length and contested-catch prowess, he will always do his most damage outside the numbers. He has only played 13.4% of his snaps in the slot in the last two years. But since head coach Brandon Staley took over in 2021, the Chargers have looked for ways to expand Williams' game, and moving inside for 2023 feels like the next natural step in his progression. The 28-year-old has a lot of boom/bust to his game for fantasy purposes, but moving to the slot more could help him be more consistent as a WR3.
