D.J. Chark Jr. Signs One-Year Deal with Los Angeles Chargers

The veteran wide receiver joins the Chargers after a season with the Carolina Panthers, aiming to boost the team's receiving corps.

D.J. Chark Jr., previously with the Carolina Panthers, has agreed to a one-year contract with the Los Angeles Chargers worth up to $5 million.
Chark, a 27-year-old veteran, brings experience to a relatively young Chargers receiving group, which lacks any player with more than three years in the NFL.
The Chargers have made significant roster changes this offseason, including trading away longtime receivers and drafting new talent, as they look to improve their offensive line-up.
Chark's career highlights include a Pro Bowl selection in 2019 after a standout season with the Jacksonville Jaguars, where he recorded over 1,000 receiving yards.
The addition of Chark is part of the Chargers' strategy under new head coach Jim Harbaugh to revitalize their team and support quarterback Justin Herbert.
