The draft finally happened! After months of speculation, the Los Angeles Chargers picked the rookies that will help them define the 2024 season. And let’s just say they picked some good ones.
Los Angeles Chargers rookie offensive tackle Joe Alt is now playing for the division rival of his dad, John Alt. With the Bolts taking Joe fifth overall in the 2024 NFL Draft, he is set to face his dad's team twice a year.
The Los Angeles Chargers have rushed for less than 100 yards per game over the course of the last two seasons. They have not ranked top-10 in the NFL in rushing since LaDainian Tomlinson roamed the field back when the team played in San Diego.
The Los Angeles Chargers needed a good 2024 NFL Draft. How'd they do? Let's see how the Bolts did and give them a grade.
The Los Angeles Chargers need an upgrade at their wide receiver position, especially when it comes to proven veterans. The team opted not to take a receiver in the draft until round two when they took Georgia's Ladd McConkey.
The Los Angeles Chargers moved on from Mike Williams and Keenan Allen during this offseason. Drafting Ladd McConkey in round two was a good start to building a new WR room, but it was an only a start.
After Joe Hortiz and Jim Harbaugh took over as the Los Angeles Chargers general manager and head coach, there were some mild rumors about quarterback Justin Herbert getting traded.
Tyler Boyd remains unsigned, but that may not be the case for long.
Former USC Trojans and 2024 Los Angeles Chargers draft pick, Brenden Rice started Day 2 of the NFL Draft by boarding a 5 AM flight to Dallas, Texas. It is there that the 22-year-old served as the pallbearer and eulogist for his best friend and former teammate Keith Miller III, who died about two weeks previously.
The Los Angeles Chargers are undergoing a new chapter with a revamped front office and with Jim Harbaugh as the head coach. Ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft, there were a lot of mock drafts that had them selecting a wide receiver in the first round.
Days before the 2024 NFL Draft kicked off and the Los Angeles Chargers drafted Notre Dame offensive lineman Joe Alt with the No. 5 overall pick, Alt was given a whirlwind trip at the Selfridge Air National Guard Base.
Joe Alt was considered one of the best players heading in the 2024 NFL Draft and almost a guarantee to be drafted among the top ten picks. This consensus prediction came true as the Los Angeles Chargers drafted him fifth overall.
The Los Angeles Chargers went into the draft needing to pick a receiver. While they subverted some expectations by passing on Malik Nabers at 5, they traded up to 34 from 37 to select Ladd McConkey.
Intriguing new Los Angeles Chargers veteran running back J.K. Dobbins was swiped from the Baltimore Ravens this season on a one-year, $1.6 million free
The Los Angeles Chargers have entered a new era under Jim Harbaugh. The Chargers have endured a lot of change throughout this offseason, even before the NFL Draft.
The Los Angeles Chargers brought in another former Baltimore Raven when they signed J.K. Dobbins to a one-year deal earlier this month. The deal reunites Dobbins with former Ravens and current Chargers offensive coordinator Greg Roman, Gus Edwards, and tight end Hayden Hurst.
The Los Angeles Chargers are in need of some help at wide receiver, and Odell Beckham Jr. is still available. Sounds like a match could be in order. At least that’s what Dan Pizzuta of The 33rd Team thinks.
The Los Angeles Chargers signed running back J.K. Dobbins in free agency, meaning that Dobbins will get the chance to reunite with offensive coordinator Greg Roman.
Running back J.K. Dobbins has the “injury-prone” label firmly affixed to him after three years in which he was unable to stay on the field. The new Los Angeles Charger believes the worst of the problems are behind him, though.
His best years were in 2020 and 2021, but now 18 months removed from an ACL tear, it's feasible that a bounceback campaign lies ahead.
Per Daniel Popper of The Athletic, the Chargers are picking up the fifth-year option for LT Rashawn Slater. This move was expected as Slater has established himself as one of the better left tackles in football.
The 2024 NFL Draft has come and gone, and for the Los Angeles Chargers, it was the first of a new era. General manager Joe Hortiz had his first Draft (likely with input from coach Jim Harbaugh).
He ranked No. 2 in the FBS with 1,661 rushing yards, No. 2 in yards after contact (1056), No. 3 in rushes for a first down (82), No. 2 in missed tackles forced (94) and No. 1 in runs of 10+ yards (47).
Rice was known for hauling in contested catches and 50-50 balls throughout his college career, which started at Colorado and finished at USC.
The 13th overall pick in the 2021 draft, Slater has started all 36 of his appearances since joining the Chargers.
