It’s been a disappointing start to the NFL season for many teams, but none have been worse than the Los Angeles Chargers<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Chargers are 0-5, and nothing looks likely to change soon. They haven’t been able to do enough on either side of the ball, which is a very disappointing sign.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Offensively, this Chargers team has been as bad as anyone could imagine, currently scoring the third-fewest points in the entire AFC.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Only two teams are below them: the tanking Miami Dolphins<\/a> and Tennessee Titans<\/a>. Many assume both teams will sell at the deadline, especially with some of their veterans, but there was certainly hope the Chargers wouldn’t be in that boat just a couple of weeks ago.<\/p>\n

Fast forward to Week 6, and the latest report from Adam Schefter suggests Los Angeles will be one of the teams that moves on from pieces.<\/p>\n

“The teams that you look at are the teams that aren’t winning that can shed salaries and pick up draft picks.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would look at the Dolphins, Chargers, Titans, and Cardinals<\/a>,\u201d Schefter said<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Chargers have a lot of tough decisions to make, as multiple players could be valuable to other contending teams around the league.\u00a0<\/p>\n

There’s also a Justin Herbert question that could come up, though it still seems premature to suggest they need to move on from him, given that he’s a franchise-caliber quarterback.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As for others, reports indicate that a guy like Khalil Mack could become available. Mack is a very good player even at this stage of his career at 35 years old, currently posting three sacks and eight total tackles.<\/p>\n
