Chargers News: Bolt Fans Chime In On Compelling WR Debate

In this story:
There is nothing that any NFL fan loves more than a good highlight. Especially seeing the social media era that we are currently in where everybody has a camera on at all times, it's very hard for a professional to make an incredible catch and for there to be little to no footage of it after.
Fans of the Los Angeles Chargers have gotten to see plenty close up over the last three seasons as Justin Herbert has manned the QB position and developed great chemistry with both Keenan Allen and Mike Williams. We are wishing nothing but health for these guys in 2023 and seeing that they both is logged over 60 receptions last year despite injuries is pretty wild.
But with Williams specifically, he has developed the reputation of making some of the most athletic catches we've seen in the past decade. If LA is running a play on their fourth down, the ball is likely going to him and we all definitely remember his infamous one-handed catch against the Los Angeles Rams.
MIKE WILLIAMS ONLY NEEDED ONE HAND 🤯🤯🤯

Where Does Williams Rank Among The League's Best?
The NFL's official Twitter page knows that fans are growing impatient as they wait for the new season to roll around so they have been doing their best to keep the community engaged as best as possible.
They recently shared a tweet with pictures of Williams, DeAndre Hopkins, Davante Adams, Justin Jefferson, Mike Evans, and asked their followers which WR they would trust to catch a jump ball for $1 million.

Williams certainly found himself next to some elite company and Bolts fans made sure to defend his name.
One fan shared the same clip of him making the one-handed catch along with some pictures so everybody could understand that difficulty of the play.

Another user also chose Williams and referred to his height as a major reason why.
Mike Williams he’s like 6’4”

Nonetheless, all of these guys are on the list for a reason and we cannot wait to see Williams back and healthy in the new season!
