NFL Position Roles - Los Angeles Chargers

03/20/24 Gus Edwards is the lead back. Edwards is expected to see the majority of work on early downs and near the goal line. Currently, the team has no clear cut receiving RB. Isaiah Spiller and Elijah Dotson will compete for change-of-pace work as well as snaps as a receiving RB.

03/20/24 Josh Palmer is currently in line to be the No. 1 receiver. Palmer will likely be in a full-time role. After a disappointing rookie season, Quentin Johnston will be relied on to be a starter and No. 2 option. Both Derius Davis and Simi Fehoko will have a chance to earn a prominent role in the offense unless the team makes an effort to add talent in the NFL Draft.

03/20/24 The Chargers will likely have a tight end by committee. They have four players who may be fairly equally talented. Free agent additions Will Dissly and Hayden Hurst join holdovers Donald Parham and Stone Smartt.
