The Chargers are set to open up the 2024 regular season against the Raiders this weekend at SoFi Stadium.
Los Angeles no longer has the likes of Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, but Justin Herbert and a handful of other key players on both sides of the ball return. And there will be new faces, including Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins, Joe Alt, Ladd McConkey and Kristian Fulton, among others.
