The Los Angeles Chargers underwent major roster churn under the direction of head coach Jim Harbaugh yet again this offseason.
This time, the goal was simple: Elevate Justin Herbert. To do so, the Chargers willingly brought on Mike McDaniel as offensive coordinator. On the other side of the ball, they unwillingly lost defensive coordinator Jesse Minter.
Entering training camp, here’s what the fully assembled roster looks like.

Chargers roster bubble candidates
EDGE Bud Dupree
Not much to say here at this point. Bud Dupree has been a cut candidate for a while after doing little more than serving as depth. He’s 33 years old. The Chargers drafted Akheem Mesidor in the first round to replace Odafe Oweh’s production. Khalil Mack is back, Tuli Tuipulotu should reset the pass-rusher contract market this offseason and they still have hopes for Kyle Kennard, never mind undrafted free agent Nadame Tucker.
LB Junior Colson
Time is running out for Junior Colson. The Michigan-Harbaugh connection out of the third round in 2024 hasn’t made the jump to full-time starter, missing all of last year due to a shoulder injury. The Chargers brought back Denzel Perryman this offseason, still have Daiyan Henley as a core leader and Del'Shawn Phillips as a special teams ace. Troy Dye is a great backup and former undrafted free agent Marlowe Wax broke out last year.
RB Kimani Vidal
More of a long shot than the other two, but there’s new competition at running back under McDaniel. Omarion Hampton is the workhorse, with new arrival Keaton Mitchell the super-fast spell back. Names like Jaret Patterson and Amar Johnson bring competition, while undrafted rookie Gregory Desrosiers appears to have some major upside.
