The Los Angeles Chargers have released wide receiver Mike Williams, the team announced Wednesday.
The move will free up $20 million in cap space for Los Angeles. Williams was scheduled to have a $32.4-million cap hit in 2024, according to Over The Cap. He signed a three-year, $60-million contract extension in March 2022.
Williams had been with the Chargers since they selected him seventh overall in 2017. He’s produced two 1,000-yard receiving campaigns in seven years and led the league in yards per reception in 2019.
