Mike Williams (back) missing from Chargers practice again Wednesday
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (back) is not present during the portion of practice open to the media on Wednesday.
Chargers head coach Brandon Staley said Williams was day-to-day on Tuesday and he expected the receiver to practice at some point before Saturday's wild-card game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Assuming he picks up another DNP on Wednesday, Williams' last chance to practice this week will be on Thursday. Prior to exiting in the second quarter of the Chargers' regular-season finale, Williams caught 4 passes (5 targets) for 32 yards. Josh Palmer and DeAndre Carter will have more snaps and routes available if Williams winds up being limited or unavailable on Saturday night.
Williams caught 63 passes on 93 targets for 895 yards and 4 touchdowns in 13 appearances this season. He led the Chargers in average depth of target (12.0 yards) and air yards per game (85.8). The Jaguars finished with the seventh-worst pass defense in numberFire's adjusted team metrics, providing a funnel for Justin Herbert and the Chargers.
