The Los Angeles Chargers have maintained a steady, if not entirely stellar, presence in the NFL. Over the last four seasons, Justin Herbert’s squad has faced disappointment in the Wild Card round, losing three times.
After concluding the 2025 season at 11-6—mirroring their previous year’s record—the Chargers found themselves looking at a lengthy offseason following a loss to the New England Patriots, who went on to become the AFC champions, with a score of 16-3.
“We just didn’t measure up,” head coach Jim Harbaugh remarked as the season wrapped up. “We’ll put a lot of energy, possibly sleepless nights, into fixing this… It’s not the end for us; rather, it’s a fresh start.”
With the 2026 NFL schedule now unveiled, fans can see what lies ahead for the team.
Among the notable opponents set to visit the Chargers’ SoFi Stadium this year are Bo Nix’s Denver Broncos on October 11, CJ Stroud’s Houston Texans on November 8, and, of course, Patrick Mahomes’ Kansas City Chiefs, facing off on January 10. They will also host the Los Angeles Rams on November 1 and a rematch against Drake Maye’s Patriots on November 29.
This lineup contributes to the Chargers having the ninth-toughest schedule in 2026, as noted by Yahoo Sports.
Key returning players include Justin Herbert, Khalil Mack, Derwin James Jr., Omarion Hampton, and Joe Alto. Elite left tackle Rashawn Slater will also make a comeback after missing all of 2025 due to a torn patellar tendon.
Additions to the roster include running back Najee Harris, guard Mekhi Becton, and cornerback Donte Jackson. New signees like Charlie Kohler, Keaton Mitchell, Cole Strange, and Tyler Biadasz will also join the squad, along with the new offensive coordinator, Mike McDaniel, who comes after the Dolphins let go of their head coach.
