Chargers.com Team Awards: Most Improved Player

We asked our panel of experts and insiders to select their choices for various awards for the 2018 season. We will reveal their answers over the coming days.

Take a look at who is the 2018 Chargers Most Improved Player:

Ricky Henne – Michael Davis

The first player who popped into my mind is Mike Williams, as the version we saw in 2018 vastly differed from the one we saw as a rookie. However, that’s not really fair. We all knew that Williams was greatly hindered by a back injury in 2017, so we never saw his true self. So, I’ve got to give the award to Michael Davis. The former undrafted free agent flashed as a rookie, showing a raw skillset and ability that had potential, but needed refinement. Well, that certainly was the case this year as the cornerback wrestled a starting spot midway through the year and proved to be a reliable, steady presence in the back end. Davis still has a ways to go before fully realizing his potential, but he took a massive step forward his sophomore season, starting 11 games between the regular season and playoffs.
