Trey Lance has officially joined the Los Angeles Chargers on a one-year contract worth up to $6.2 million, as reported by ESPN's Adam Schefter. This move positions Lance, along with Taylor Heinicke, as a backup to star quarterback Justin Herbert, who has shown remarkable durability throughout his career despite battling injuries. Herbert's resilience is noteworthy; he started 62 consecutive games before an injury in the 2023 season. Lance, drafted third overall in 2021, has had a tumultuous career with limited playing time. After a stint with the San Francisco 49ers and the Dallas Cowboys, he has the opportunity to revitalize his career in Los Angeles.
