The Los Angeles Chargers' cap casualty is Aaron Rodgers' gain.
Former Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams is signing a one-year deal worth up to $15 million with the New York Jets, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The deal means Williams will not be taking his planned visits to the Carolina Panthers and Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Jets posted something of a confirmation soon after the report, referencing a fan who went viral by ordering a breakfast sandwich to the team's facility for Williams.

Williams was released by the Chargers last week amid a salary cap crunch that also saw them trade away longtime star Keenan Allen and negotiate pay cuts with pass-rushers Joey Bosa and Khalil Mack.
