Chargers GM Tom Telesco: 'A never-ending process' to improve roster - Eric Williams

Chargers WR Mike Williams still a couple weeks away from practicing - Eric Williams
“We have to stay with the same plan we’ve had. But at least now it’s good that you start to see the end a little bit, and I think he’s getting excited about actually putting a helmet on and running some routes, catching some balls from the quarterback. So we’re getting there. He’s not quite ready for practice, but we’re getting closer.”
West Notes: Ward, Donald, Hawks, Schofield - Sam Robinson
A two-position starter for the Broncos during the past two seasons, Michael Schofield attracted widespread interest on the waiver wire. The Chargers won out due to their position in the waiver hierarchy, but the Lions, Redskins, Vikings and Saints also put in claims on the fourth-year guard/tackle, Ian Rapoport of NFL.com tweets. A 2014 third-rounder, Schofield started for the Broncos at right tackle during their Super Bowl season and lined up at right guard throughout 2016. While Denver didn’t sport particularly effective O-lines during those seasons, Schofield clearly has believers out there.
