Chargers Release Week 1 Unofficial Depth Chart 

dc

The Chargers have released their unofficial depth chart ahead of Week 1.

The Bolts open the 2022 season at home against the Raiders. Kickoff is Sunday at 1:25 p.m. (PT) from SoFi Stadium.

For reference, the Chargers offense is listed in "21 personnel" with two backs (a running back and fullback) and a tight end. That leaves two spots at receiver, along with a quarterback and the offensive line.

The Bolts defense, meanwhile, features starters in a base 3-4 scheme, which includes three down linemen, two outside linebackers, two inside linebackers, two cornerbacks and two safeties.

Here's a look at the Chargers unofficial depth chart with starters followed by backups listed in order as they appear.
