Chargers News: Top 3 WR Free Agent Replacement Options After Mike Williams News

LA may look to fill the role left by the Williams injury.

The Los Angeles Chargers suffered a major blow to their roster over the weekend, as wide receiver Mike Williams suffered a torn ACL. He will now miss the rest of the season, and the Bolts are now left searching for some answers at the position.

Los Angeles does have some talent in the wide receiver room, but Williams was a big part of their team. They may look to sign a replacement or two, just to help out with things. If they choose to go down that route, here are a few good options for the Bolts to consider.

3. Kenny Golladay

I know what many reading this may think when they see this name, but he is still only 29 years old. Golladay wasn't utilized correctly by the New York Giants, and his statistics suffered because of it. But he still has the ability to make an impact on an offense, and with Justin Herbert as his quarterback, it could work.

Last season, he only put up six catches for 81 yards and one score. But he is only a few years removed from back-to-back 1,000+ yard receiving seasons. Golladay was one of the more underrated wide receivers in the NFL a short while ago, and with good quarterback play, he may be able to get back to that.

2. Sammy Watkins

Watkins has bounced around the league over the last few years, but he is still capable of producing for a team. While he never lived up to the hype coming out of college, Watkins can still play a role for a team. If the Chargers were to sign him, he would just need to fit in. They wouldn't need him to be a top option, and he could help space the field for Herbert.

Last year, he split time between the Green Bay Packers and Baltimore Ravens, putting up 16 catches for 325 yards. He didn't score a touchdown, but this could be his last chance to prove himself in the league.

1. Jarvis Landry

One of the best available options on the free agent market is veteran Jarvis Landry. Landry spent time with the New Orleans Saints last season, putting up 25 catches for 272 yards and one score. Throughout his career, he has been known as a reception machine, and that could help this Bolts team, especially in third-down situations.

He has also been labeled as a professional over the course of his career, and he could bring more veteran presence to the Chargers. Landry makes sense for the Bolts here, and it's a shock that he is still a free agent.
