The Los Angeles Chargers are looking to add another weapon to their offensive arsenal, and wide receiver Chris Godwin could be the perfect fit. With Tee Higgins expected to stay in Cincinnati, Godwin becomes the top free-agent receiver on the market, and the Chargers are reportedly interested in signing him.
Godwin is coming off a bounce-back season that was cut short due to injury, but he’s still a highly productive player who can make a big impact in the slot. Pairing him with Justin Herbert and Ladd McConkey could create a dynamic trio for the Chargers’ offense.
However, there’s one potential issue: both Godwin and McConkey thrive in the slot. McConkey played 72% of his snaps from the slot last season, and it’s unclear if he’d be as effective on the outside. The Chargers would need to be confident that Godwin can excel on the outside to make this move work.
Ultimately, the Chargers have a decision to make. They could sign Godwin and potentially create one of the best receiving corps in the league, or they could look for a receiver who better complements McConkey’s skillset. It’s a tough choice, but it’s one that could have a major impact on the Chargers’ offense next season.
