Jets agree to 1-year deal with former Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams, AP source says
A person familiar with the deal tells The Associated Press the New York Jets have agreed to terms with former Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams on a one-year contract
The New York Jets have agreed to terms with former Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams on a one-year contract, a person familiar with the deal told The Associated Press.
The 29-year-old Williams visited the Jets' facility Tuesday and reportedly had meetings with other teams scheduled — but New York didn’t let him leave its building without a deal.
NFL Network first reported the agreement between Williams and the Jets and said it’s worth up to $15 million.
Williams gives quarterback Aaron Rodgers another playmaker as a complement to No. 1 wide receiver Garrett Wilson in what should be a much-improved offense this season. Along with Rodgers expecting to be fully healthy after tearing his left Achilles tendon four plays into his debut for New York, the Jets rebuilt their offensive line by signing left tackle Tyron Smith and left guard John Simpson and acquiring Morgan Moses from Baltimore in a trade last week.
