Steelers hosting FA wide receiver Mike Williams for a visit
The Pittsburgh Steelers have been working at a frenetic pace this offseason adding talent and it sounds like they are not done. According to multiple sources including ESPN NFL reporter Adam Schefter, the Steelers are planning to host former Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams for a visit.
The Steelers traded away starting wide receiver Diontae Johnson at the start of free agency to help save money, add a starting cornerback and remove a potential troublemaker in the locker room. The Steelers signed free agent wide receiver Van Jefferson already but Williams brings a whole different level of production and experience.
Former Chargers’ WR Mike Williams is scheduled to visit this week with the Jets, Panthers and Steelers, per source. Jets up first with Williams arriving Monday night.
Also, with the Chargers having traded WR Keenan Allen, they also are interested in bringing back Williams.

We doubt he will leave if the Steelers get Williams into Pittsburgh for a visit. General Manager Omar Khan has been working his magic all offseason so we have no doubt he can make the sell to Williams to come join this talented group of skill players and catch passes from Russell Wilson.
