Los Angeles Chargers Depth Chart
How the Chargers could line up for the 2022 season.
A heartbreaking, overtime Week 18 road loss to Las Vegas kept the Los Angeles Chargers out of the playoffs, but the arrow is definitely pointing up on this team. Quarterback Justin Herbert has established himself as one of the best at his position in just two seasons. The offense is full of playmakers and could feature one of the top lines in the league. The defense has added several new faces, including outside linebacker Khalil Mack and cornerback J.C. Jackson, and still features edge rusher Joey Bosa and do-everything safety Derwin James Jr. If all of the pieces come together and second-year head coach Brandon Staley shows his own growth, the Chargers won't be sitting out the postseason in 2022.
