The Los Angeles Chargers made waves by signing quarterback Trey Lance, raising eyebrows given their recent re-signing of Taylor Heinicke. While some questioned the necessity, the move is seen as an attempt to enhance competition for the backup quarterback position. Lance's previous performance, including a standout yet tumultuous preseason game against the Chargers, highlighted both his potential and struggles. The Chargers may be looking to create a dual-threat offense that can better adapt if Justin Herbert, who has faced injuries, is sidelined again. This strategic decision opens various avenues for their offensive strategy in the upcoming season.
