The offseason kept on rolling for the LA Chargers on Friday, starting with the use of the franchise tag on Hunter Henry. Henry will be tagged at an $11 million value for the 2020 season.
In terms of what it may mean for the future, contract talks will still go on. In terms of past franchise tag history, Melvin Ingram comes to mind. He was initially tagged by the Chargers before signing a four-year deal worth $66 million in 2017.
Everyone expected the Chargers to tag Henry, but the cuts they made were more surprising.
