Where do Denver Broncos receivers stack up in AFC West?

3. Los Angeles Chargers

You know the receivers in the AFC West are good when a room with Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are only the third-best in the division.

Mike Williams enjoyed a career season this year, amassing over 1,100 receiving yards and earning an extension.

Keenan Allen also had over 1,100 receiving yards as well.

Outside of those two, their next best receiver in terms of yards in 2021 was Jalen Guyton, who had just 448 yards.

Jared Cook and Austin Ekeler both put up more than 500 receiving yards, but, they’re obviously not wide receivers.

The depth is a bit questionable outside of Allen and Williams, so I think the Chargers are third here.

Neither receiver is truly “elite,” but they can both be very good.

With Justin Herbert under center, Los Angeles will have no trouble pushing the ball down the field, but they could use another viable receiver, perhaps someone who can stretch the field with their speed.

Will Fuller would make a lot of sense in this offense.
