The Chargers have important players who will need extended or new deals, including the three mentioned above who, if not given contract extensions, will hit free agency the next season.
In the most recent list compiled by NFL.com’s Gregg Rosenthal, three Chargers players appear in the top 25 list of 2020 free agents. The only other team to have three players on the list is the Cowboys, who have Dak Prescott, Amari Cooper and Byron Jones.
The first Charger on the list is none other than Rivers, coming in at No. 2 after Dak Prescott.
