Los Angeles Chargers Jim Harbaugh Justin Herbert NFL preseason Travis Burke

The Los Angeles Chargers are navigating the 2026 preseason under head coach Jim Harbaugh. Harbaugh recently drew mixed reactions from fans following unconventional comments regarding quarterback Justin Herbert, who has led the franchise to the postseason in three different seasons.

On the roster front, the team is seeing development among younger players. Offensive tackle Travis Burke, a fourth-round draft pick from Memphis, has emerged as a notable prospect after starting in the preseason opener. Burke has been working alongside veterans such as Rashawn Slater and Khalil Mack, and may see increased responsibility due to a setback in Slater’s rehabilitation process.
