It should come as no surprise to Los Angeles Chargers fans that the team is highly motivated to get a deal done on an extension for quarterback Justin Herbert, who is set to become a free agent at the end of the 2023 season. While the Chargers are currently hamstrung by a less-than-ideal financial situation relative to their salary cap, the price they will pay to secure Herbert’s services for the foreseeable future will only go up.
According to one report, head coach Brandon Staley told reporters that negotiations with Herbert on an extension are “ongoing” though no timetable for when ink might hit paper was provided.
