The Los Angeles Chargers are looking to upgrade their offense in many ways this offseason.
The team is still struggling to figure out exactly what the wide receiver corps looks like. Ladd McConkey is the leader in the slot, and Tre Harris is someone to watch as a second-year pro, but there are a lot of questions outside of that. Quentin Johnston is due for a decision on his fifth-year option, which means the Chargers could move on from him. If they do, they could replace him with Miami Dolphins castoff Tyreek Hill.
“Hill to the Chargers makes sense on several levels. Financially, Los Angeles can afford it, entering the offseason with $78.6 million in effective cap space. That’s second-most in the NFL, per Over the Cap,“ CBS Sports contributor Garett Podell wrote.
“Quarterback Justin Herbert arm strength is another draw. His 24,820 passing yards rank second-most through a player’s first six seasons, trailing only Hall of Famer Peyton Manning (24,885).
“There’s also scheme familiarity: former Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel now serves as the Chargers’ offensive coordinator. Hill could step into a system he already knows and produce quickly once healthy. Hill even tweeted that McDaniel’s move to Los Angeles caught his attention.”
If anyone knows how to utilize Hill, it’s former Miami Dolphins head coach and now Chargers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel.
McDaniel could center the offense around Hill to give Justin Herbert a deep threat to work with moving forward.
While Hill is still recovering from a torn ACL that he suffered early in the 2025 season, if he is 75% of who he used to be, it will still be the best deep threat option Herbert has had in his career with the Chargers.
