Veteran backup quarterback Chase Daniel is the newest member of the LA Chargers. A one-year, $1.5 million dollar deal reunites him with offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi. He also spent a short period of time in Chicago with Brandon Staley.

With Tyrod Taylor gone, the Chargers needed a true backup in the quarterback room. This move can only help Justin Herbert since Daniel has quite a bit of experience with Lombardi’s quarterback and offensive coaching style.
