Analyst suggests Chargers consider trading Justin Herbert amid struggles

Summary

The Los Angeles Chargers remain winless at 0-6 this season, prompting calls for a potential reset at quarterback. NFL analyst Chris Broussard argues the team should explore trading Justin Herbert and drafting a new quarterback, especially given their likely high pick in the upcoming draft. Herbert's performance has been particularly poor this season, with uncharacteristic mistakes and limited support from a struggling offensive line. Following a bye week, the Chargers face a challenging matchup against the Los Angeles Rams, where their coaching staff's futures could be at risk depending on the outcome.

What they're saying

"
The biggest surprise of the 2026 season is the Los Angeles Chargers, and it’s far from a good surprise. The Chargers are 0-6, and the offense, which was hyped to be one of the most exciting offenses, is terrible.
