Insider Drops Truth Bomb on Chargers’ Justin Herbert Trade Rumors

Trade rumors surrounding Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert are heating up following the team's 0-6 start to the 2026 NFL season. According to NFL insider Jason La Canfora, league figures are beginning to question Herbert's long-term future in Los Angeles, noting that while a trade remains unlikely, it would no longer be a complete shock given the franchise's unexpected collapse.

Herbert has struggled to adapt to new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel's scheme, completing a career-low 59.4% of his passes with five touchdowns and a league-leading eight interceptions across six games. Heavy reports that while moving on from Herbert would be a franchise-altering decision, rival teams are expected to monitor his availability as the upcoming trade deadline approaches.
