The Los Angeles Chargers added wide receiver Mike Williams and cornerback Chris Harris to the COVID-19 list Wednesday, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.

They join wide receiver Keenan Allen on the COVID-19 reserve.

Williams and Harris are both unvaccinated, increasing the likelihood they'll sit out Week 14 against the New York Giants, reports Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times.

The Chargers placed Allen, their top pass-catcher, on the COVID-19 list Monday after he tested positive. However, head coach Brandon Staley said he's hopeful the wideout can be activated in time to face the Giants.

Nonetheless, the Chargers face the possibility of hosting the Giants without their top two receivers in Allen and Williams and a defensive starter in Harris.

Allen and Williams have combined to haul in 141 receptions for 1,783 yards and 11 touchdowns this season. Unproven youngsters Jalen Guyton and Josh Palmer would be in line to replace the duo if they're still on the COVID-19 list come Sunday.

Harris has 26 tackles and one interception on the year.
