COSTA MESA, Calif. (Cheap NFL Jerseys,) — Mike Williams only got 10 snaps in his debut with the Los Angeles Chargers, and he caught just one pass. The first-round pick from Clemson still savored his first chance to be on an NFL field.

"Little jitters, but once I saw the ball coming my way, I felt a little better," Williams said.

The rookie receiver loved it even more when his 15-yard catch contributed to the Chargers' Jerseys NFL Wholesale,fourth-quarter touchdown drive in a 17-16 victory over the Oakland Raiders.

"It was big," Williams said Monday after the Chargers returned home. "That's what coach (Anthony Lynn) was preaching the whole week. It was going to be a tough road game. We just had to go out there and fight to the end. That's what we did, and we've got two big road wins."

Indeed, the Chargers' relocation year is looking up after back-to-back victories that have erased some of the disappointment from an 0-4 start.

Thanks to a herniated disk in his lower back from the first day of his rookie minicamp with the Chargers, Williams hadn't played in a game since last January, when he won the national championship in Clemson's victory over Alabama. When asked whether that game was more stressful than his NFL debut in the Black Hole, Williams laughed.

"I don't know, that national championship game was pretty intense," he said. "Alabama was pretty good. But that first NFL game, that's what you dream about as a kid, just to get the opportunity to be in the NFL and get a chance."

He'll get more chances this weekend: Lynn expects to increase Williams' workload steadily as the Chargers move toward their bye in two weeks.Cheap Jerseys Online, Williams and Rivers are still getting to know each other, so every snap will count.

"We wanted to get him 10 to 15 reps (in Oakland), and we got him 10," Lynn said. "This week, it may go up to 20 or 25. We'll work him into the rotation and get him going moving forward."

So we're excited moving forward that he's going to be a part of our futu...
