The Los Angeles Chargers are expected to acquire a quarterback to compete with Tyrod Taylor at some point this offseason, but general manager Tom Telesco is confident in the veteran for now.

"We have confidence in Tyrod Taylor," Telesco said Tuesday on ESPN's Get Up. "Just as important, his teammates have confidence in Tyrod, so that's where we are right now. We're very happy with that, and other than that, we're really pretty much all draft-focused right now. Free agency obviously goes on forever. Free agency never ends, but the main part of free agency has kind of passed, and we're strictly in draft mode, but we're excited about Tyrod.
