Chargers’ updated depth chart after Round 1 of 2020 NFL Draft

How does the Los Angeles Chargers’ depth chart after their first two picks of the 2020 NFL Draft?

The Chargers added quarterback Justin Herbert and linebacker Kenneth Murray into the mix after selecting them with their first-round selections in the 2020 NFL Draft.

With the selection of Herbert, Los Angeles sees this as an opportunity to let him sit for a year behind Tyrod Taylor to develop his game and fix any deficiencies he has before taking the reins.

With the selection of Murray, he will likely see significant playing time in his rookie season at both Mike and Will linebacker, rotating with Denzel Perryman, Drue Tranquill and Nick Vigil.

Here’s a look at the Chargers’ updated depth chart after the selections of Herbert and Murray.
