The Chargers first unofficial depth chart of 2023 has been released.
The Bolts open preseason play by visiting the Rams on Saturday at SoFi Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 6 p.m. Unofficial depth charts are league-mandated before a team's first preseason game.
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 nickel scheme, which includes two down linemen, two edge rushers, two inside linebackers, three 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.
