"Williams has reunited with the Chargers after spending the 2024 season with the Jets and Steelers. His one-year absence from Los Angeles didn't go well as, after being limited to a 12-166-0 receiving line in nine games with New York, he was shipped to Pittsburgh and produced a 9-132-1 line in nine games. Williams has never quite lived up to his first-round pedigree, having produced zero top-10 fantasy campaigns and only two better than 39th. The 30-year-old is no longer guaranteed a consistent share of the targets, with Ladd McConkey and perhaps Quentin Johnston and second-round rookie Tre Harris ahead of him on the depth chart. Williams is worth no more than a late flier."


"Williams was selected by the Chargers in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft and spent his first seven professional seasons with the organization, topping out at 76 catches for 1,146 yards and nine touchdowns during a career-best 2021 campaign. The Clemson product moved on to the Jets last offseason but struggled to produce and was traded to the Steelers in early November. Between his stints with the two clubs, Williams tallied a modest 21 catches on 34 targets for 298 yards and one touchdown over 18 games during the regular season. With his return to Los Angeles, Williams will team up with a familiar quarterback in Justin Herbert, and he should have a decent-sized role as the team's No. 2 or No. 3 receiver behind Ladd McConkey."
