As the Los Angeles Chargers enter the 2023 training camp, several players could potentially be traded. With a revamped offense and new additions to the team, the Chargers may look to make some moves to further strengthen their roster. In this article, we will explore three potential players who could be traded by the Los Angeles Chargers.

 

Training Camp Priorities

The Chargers have several priorities for their 2023 NFL Training Camp. These include improving their run defense. That was one of the worst in the league last season, ranking 27th in rushing yards allowed per game. For sure, they will focus on addressing this weakness during training camp. They have also announced a public practice schedule, allowing fans to see the team in action and increasing fan engagement. It also goes without saying that they will evaluate their current depth chart and see which roles still need filling. Some players may also end up on the trading block — surprisingly or otherwise.

Here we will look at the potential trade candidates for the Chargers entering training camp.

 

Mike Williams

Williams has been a valuable asset for the Chargers since he was drafted in 2017. Known for his impressive performances, Williams has shown his ability to make big plays and contribute to the team's offense. However, injuries have been a concern throughout his career. He even missed four games last season. This may make the Chargers hesitant to offer him a long-term contract extension. With his injury history, the team may be cautious about committing significant resources to Williams.

Additionally, the Chargers have a deep wide receiver corps, with Keenan Allen, Josh Palmer, and rookie Quentin Johnston all competing for starting spots. This depth at the position could make Williams expendable, as the team may feel confident in their other options. Trading Williams could also provide the Chargers with some much-needed cap space and flexibility to address other areas of need on the roster.
