Chargers Pursue Mike Evans for Offensive Boost

0:00On this March 7, here's what's making headlines for the NFL. The Los Angeles Chargers are ramping up their offense this off season after a rough 2025 season. They kick things off by signing Senator Tyler Bayadaz to a $3-year $30 million contract. Now, they're hunting for better weapons around quarterback Justin Herbert, especially a wide receiver. Their current trio of Lad McConkey, Keenan Allen, and Quinn Johnston combine for underwhelming numbers with none reaching 800 yards. Allen hits free agency soon, while Johnston's fifth-year option remains unpicked. Veteran star Mike Evans from Tampa Bay could fill that gap. The 32-year-old just snapped his 11-season streak of 1,000 receiving yards due to injury, but he's still a proven outside threat. An NFL insider recently named the Chargers as a top suitor if Evans leaves the Buccaneers. Other teams in the mix include the Bills, 49ers, Commanders, and Giants. His market value sits around $20 million per year for a two-year pact.
