Guyton and Joshua Palmer are expected to share the Chargers' No. 3 receiver role Sunday against the Broncos after Mike Williams (illness) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list, Gavino Borquez of USA Today reports.
While both Williams and Guyton were on the list last week, Palmer stepped in as the No. 2 wideout behind Keenan Allen and played a whopping 98 percent of the Chargers' offensive snaps and finished with a 5-43-1 receiving line on six targets in a 41-29 loss to the Texans. After Guyton was activated from the list Wednesday, both he and Palmer looked poised to have regular spots in three-receiver sets this weekend, but Williams' reinstatement Thursday will close the door on that possibility. Before testing positive for the virus and sitting out against the Texans, Guyton hovered between 35 and 60 percent snap shares in each of the Chargers' first eight games after a Week 7 bye while averaging just 2.4 targets per contest.
