The reunion between the Los Angeles Chargers and wide receiver Mike Williams proved to be short-lived, as Williams informed the team of his surprising decision to retire on Wednesday. Williams, who was drafted by the Chargers in 2017 and played there until '23 before re-signing with the team this offseason, has called it a career after eight seasons in the league.
Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert shared his thoughts on Williams's retirement after the team's training camp practice on Thursday, saying he wants what's best for Williams. Herbert and Williams played together from 2020 to '23, and Williams recorded his most prolific pro season with Herbert at the helm in 2021, catching a career-high 76 passes for 1,146 yards.
