Post-minicamp 53-man roster projections for Chargers
Jobs weren’t won or lost during offseason workouts. Instead, they will be determined in training camp and preseason action, which begins next month.
However, that doesn’t mean that I can’t do an early speculation how I believe the Chargers roster will shape up.
