Chargers plan skip veteran WR signing

The Chargers are leaning into a youth-driven training camp, with Branson Taylor emerging at left guard and a wave of rookies (Mesidor, Slaughter, Brenen Thompson) shaping the lineup under Jim Harbaugh and Mike McDaniel’s new system.

Broncos 2026 Schedule Highlights Prime-Time Games

The Denver Broncos head into 2026 with playoff ambitions after back-to-back double-digit win seasons, facing a tough schedule that includes prime-time games and notable NFC/AFC contenders. While the addition of Jaylen Waddle and Bo Nix’s development underline their upside, analysts remain cautious with a 9.5-win projection amid a strong AFC West, though the team’s elite offensive line, top-ranked pass rush and stout run defense give them a distinct competitive edge and financial flexibility with Nix on a rookie deal.
