Chargers cap space: How much salary cap space the Los Angeles Chargers have, how they can add more

The Los Angeles Chargers put together a 2022 campaign that wasn't bad but was a bit of a disappointment. The team finished the season 10-7 after a 4-1 finish got them into the playoffs as a wild card team. This came after trading for edge rusher Khalil Mack and making a free agency splash in signing cornerback J.C. Jackson and defensive tackle Sebastian Joseph-Day.

The Chargers head into free agency clearing out some space with some contract restructurings. Coming out of a season in which they finished 19th on offense and 16th on defense, the Bolts probably won't be super active in free agency. Instead, many would argue head coach Brandon Staley needs to step things up as much as any talent does.

The Chargers head into free agency with +300 odds to win the AFC West and +2200 odds to win the Super Bowl. They have their full complement of draft picks in the 2023 NFL Draft.
