Chargers QB Justin Herbert adjusts to new offensive scheme under McDaniel

During Chargers minicamp in El Segundo, quarterback Justin Herbert is adapting to a revamped offensive scheme under new coordinator Mike McDaniel. The six-year veteran is focusing on adjusting his footwork and timing, transitioning to a stance with his left foot forward to better deliver passes to playmakers. McDaniel's system aims to efficiently utilize players in space, helping Herbert sync his throws with receivers' routes. Herbert has reduced his throwing volume in practice while emphasizing footwork drills to prepare for the upcoming training camp. Both McDaniel and head coach Jim Harbaugh expect significant improvements from Herbert and the wider receiving corps, following a year where the team averaged a subpar 21.6 points per game in 2025.
