Chargers Wideouts Muscle Into Top Trio Receiver Rankings

LA’s wide receving core among the best in the business

The Los Angeles Chargers offense is primed for a big season in large part due to their new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore. Moore is sure to bring that spark LA needs to get over the hump, and it'll be thanks to his genius offensive mind. 

However, Moore has the weapons to ensure his offesne thrives with his quarterback Justi Herbert, running back Austin Ekeler, the solid offensive line, and arguably their best position group, the wide receivers. 

The wide receiver room is stacked with talent, and they collected more of that talent by drafting rookie wide receiver Quentin Johnston. This group is going to show up and show out week in and week out. The two veterans, Mike Williams and Keenan Allen have proven to be among the best in the business, and alongside their rookie WR, David Kenyon of Bleacher Report ranked them among the top WR trios. 

Still, Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are a solid one-two punch.Allen has averaged 70-plus yards per game in six straight years, while Williams has surpassed 2,000 yards over the last two seasons. They are, when healthy, a reliable pair for quarterback Justin Herbert. Los Angeles is also hoping that first-round selection Quentin Johnston becomes a high-impact rookie. He put together a breakout year while TCU made a surprise run to the national championship, catching 60 passes for 1,069 yards and six touchdowns. There probably isn't a 1,400-yard player in this receiving corps, but any of Allen, Williams and Johnston have 1,000-yard potential.

Kenyon ranked the Bolts trio seventh, with the Cowboys, Dolphins, Eagles, Raiders, Seahawks, and Bengals in front of them. 

Injuries have tarnished the two veteran receivers in past seasons, but when they are healthy, they are in the conversation for the best receivers this league has to offer. 

A healthy Williams and Allen will be huge for the Bolts, and adding in the dynamic rookie will only add to their potential offensive prowess. 

It will be fun to watch, and this trio will prove they are the best when the season comes rolling around.
