Deadline Talks Yielded Little
General manager Joe Hortiz said the Chargers fielded inquiries since Week 3 yet received no packages strong enough to prompt trades. The only notable discussion involved a deal with the Broncos for Daiyan Henley that was later rescinded. Hortiz rejected any suggestion the team avoided conversations and noted several players were simply off limits from the start.
Core Remains Intact
The roster that takes the field against the Ravens will include Henley and the same group the team had before the deadline. Hortiz made clear certain players are not available, citing Justin Herbert, Ladd McConkey, Joe Alt, Derwin James Jr. and Tarheeb Still as foundational pieces with futures in Los Angeles.
Focus Stays on Present and Future
Despite sitting at 0-8 and riding an 11-game losing streak, Hortiz expressed belief the team can still secure a win this season. The offense has averaged 15.1 points per game while Herbert has six touchdowns against 11 interceptions. The defense has allowed 27.4 points per contest, ranking 28th. Hortiz stressed the need to compete now while also protecting assets that can help beyond this year.
