The Chargers open the season Sunday against Las Vegas at SoFi Stadium, formally ending an offseason of impressive spending.
Including the extensions for safety Derwin James Jr. and wide receiver Mike Williams, the team invested up to $284.2 million in new contracts, with $158.3 million fully guaranteed.
(The Chargers also traded for Khalil Mack and converted $13.5 million of his 2018 extension with Chicago into a signing bonus.)
