This offseason, the Los Angeles Chargers made a lot of changes in their offense. For that reason, they are ready to improve Justin Herbert’s offense by adding a top-tier wide receiver who is patiently waiting in the free agency market.

The Chargers will feature several new faces for the 2024 NFL season. Jim Harbaugh has joined the AFC West team as its new head coach, and the roster has undergone huge changes this offseason.

Mike Williams and Keenan Allen have departed Los Angeles to join the New York Jets and the Chicago Bears, respectively. As a result, the front office is actively seeking to add a new receiver and is already exploring various options.

With the departure of Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, Justin Herbert finds himself in need of a new top-wide receiver for his offense. The quarterback was left without a WR1, but the team may have just found a solution.

Alongside Odell Beckham Jr., Boyd is widely regarded as one of the best wide receivers available in the free agency. Also, he would be a cheap option for the Chargers to bring an experienced player to help Justin Herbert.

Unfortunately, the Chargers are facing competition in their pursuit of Boyd. According to reports, the Tennessee Titans are also closely monitoring the 29-year-old wideout, with plans to meet with him this week.
