Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert readies to throw a pass. Getty Images The Los Angeles Chargers are nothing if not consistent…which is a good but not great thing.
Over the past four seasons, Justin Herbert’s gifted squad has suffered three losses in the wild-card round of the NFL playoffs.
After finishing 11-6 in 2025 (they also went 11-6 in ’24), the Bolts fell 16-3 to the eventual AFC champion Patriots and subsequently faced yet another long offseason.
“We weren’t good enough,” head coach Jim Harbaugh said at the end of the season. “We’ll be spending a lot of hard work and maybe even sleepless nights getting it figured out…not looking at this as an end but as another beginning.”
And now that the 2026 NFL schedule has been announced, we have an idea of what the club has in store for their next beginning.
Just a few of the biggest franchises set to swing into the Chargers’ home SoFi Stadium this year include Bo Nix’s Denver Broncos (Oct. 11), C.J. Stroud’s Houston Texans (Nov. 8), Patrick Mahomes’ Kansas City Chiefs (Jan. 10), their fellow SoFi tenants in the Los Angeles Rams (Nov. 1) and a rematch with Drake Maye’s New England Patriots on (Nov. 29).
These high-profile foes make up what is the NFL’s ninth-most difficult schedule in 2026, according to Yahoo Sports.
As for the roster, standout standbys Justin Herbert, Khalil Mack, Derwin James Jr., Omarion Hampton and Joe Alt are all set to return, as is elite left tackle Rashawn Slater, who missed all of 2025 due to a torn patellar tendon.
Running back Najee Harris, guard Mekhi Becton and cornerback Donte Jackson are all back, too.
Offseason acquisitions Charlie Kolar, Keaton Mitchell, Cole Strange and Tyler Biadasz join them alongside with splashy offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, who came over after the Dolphins fired him as head coach.
