Chargers' Mike Williams retirement has every fan clamoring for the same free agent signing

The Los Angeles Chargers lost a veteran receiver on Thursday when Mike Williams announced his retirement.

After a year away, Williams had returned to play his eighth year with the Chargers, but it wasn't meant to be.

Football fans have already locked in on how the Chargers might replace Williams.

Keenan Allen is still a free agent.

He's one of the best offensive players in Chargers history, and even last season with the Bears, Allen was solid.

Allen was a third-round pick by the Chargers in 2013.

In 11 seasons with the lightning bolt on his helmet, Allen had 904 catches for 10,530 yards and 59 touchdowns.

Last season in Chicago, Allen went for 70 catches, 744 yards and seven TDs.

Now, a reunion may be in order.
