The Tight End Battle Is Following the 2018 NFL Draft http://www.sandiegochargersteamonline.com/denzel-perryman-jersey , the Chargers picked up a pair of tight ends out of the Big 12 in TCU’s Cole Hunt and Kansas’ Ben Johnson. At the time, this seemed like a questionable decision as the Bolts had recently picked up veteran Virgil Green from the Broncos and still had Hunter Henry, Braedon Bowman, and Sean Culkin on the roster.After Henry sustained a season-ending ACL injury during minicamp, a gaping hole was left at the tight end position. Though Green is the most experienced of the group, he only has 71 career catches over his seven-year career. Former UDFAs Culkin and Bowman were immediately slotted in as the front-runners to take over the lion’s share of targets due to them being the only other tight ends on the roster with any experience with an NFL team prior to this year.Hunt, on the other hand, has shown that the job is as wide open as ever following a strong start to training camp by the monolithic tight end.Following Day 3 of training camp,Ricky Henne and Hayley Elwood of Chargers.com both selected Hunt as one of the top performers on the first day of padded practice, stating that the tight end had a string of plays that caught the eye of coaches and fans.Rarely used in the passing game while in college, it’s surprising to see him making these strides early on in camp. In his final year at TCU, Hunt had just seven catches for 63 yards en route to earning an Honorable Mention All-Big-12 selection.Chargers Schedule 2018: Dates, Game Times, Future Opponents, Tickets and More Clocking in with zero Primetime games outside of the mandatory Thursday Night Football contest in mid-December, the Chargers’ schedule features three 10:00 a.m. starts in addition to a trip to London (at the expense of a home game).Here is the Chargers 2018 schedule http://www.sandiegochargersteamonline.com/mike-williams-jersey , featuring a game in London:vs Chiefs, 9/9, 1:05 p.m. CBS2. at Bills, 9/16, 10:00 a.m. CBS3. at Rams, 9/23, 1:05 p.m. CBS4. vs 49ers, 9/30, 1:25 p.m. CBS5. vs Raiders, 10/7, 1:05 p.m. CBS6. at Browns, 10/14, 10:00 a.m. CBS7. vs Titans (in London), 10/21, 6:30 a.m. CBS8.

The Chargers have one of the weakest schedules in the NFL based on last year’s results. This has a lot to do with the weakened version of the AFC West that we saw in 2017.Prior to the release of the schedule, we already know which teams the Chargers will play even though we don’t know when those games will be. Six games are always home and home against the rest of the division. Another eight games are based on a rotating AFC and NFC division. The last two games are then played against whichever teams finished in the same spot as the Chargers in the remaining two AFC divisions.
