Brenen Thompson's Role in Chargers' Offense | Los Angeles Chargers News

The Chargers open their season against the Arizona Cardinals, and while the game may look like a blowout, the real story is Mike McDaniel’s new offensive scheme—and how it’ll unleash Brenen Thompson.

Thompson, a college standout with elite hands and versatility, could be deployed in surprising ways—slot or wide—to exploit that weakness. Meanwhile, watch how targets are split among McConkey, Johnston, and Harris as McDaniel leans into multiple tight end sets. And don’t sleep on Omarion Hampton’s running game either. This opener could reveal just how explosive Thompson becomes under McDaniel’s system. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
