Chargers Beat: Tyrell Williams could emerge at WR

Undrafted sophomore Tyrell Williams could emerge as a Chargers contributor this year at WR. Several other young receivers will get long looks in training camp and the preseason.

If the knee injury Stevie Johnson sustained Sunday sidelines Johnson for an extended period, Williams could see a bigger role.

Fantasy Impact: 

The story said Williams could play on the outside with Keenan Allen moving to the slot if Johnson would miss time if the injury is serious. Javontee Herndon, who was sidelined Sunday, has the shiftiness that can play up in the slot if the tricky mental nuances are mastered, the story said. If Herndon can play the slot at some point, that would allow Allen back to the outside, but it all depends on the seriousness of Johnson's injury. Over the last couple of years, the team has tried to move Allen around which seemed to help last year. The Chargers use a lot of three-WR sets.
