Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh announced that quarterback Trey Lance will start for the Los Angeles Chargers Thursday in Canton to kick off the NFL preseason. The Chargers take on the Detroit Lions. The Chargers quarterback room also includes starter Justin Herbert, as well as veteran Taylor Heinicke.

Ahead of their highly anticipated match-up against the Detroit Lions in the 2025 NFL Hall of Fame on Thursday, the LA Chargers have announced that the recently acquired Trey Lance will feature in the starting lineup for the game.

Another WR to watch, the Chargers 2nd round pick was a signal that Harbaugh and Co. still believe weapons are important after they jettisoned Mike Williams and Keenan Allen in 2024. The hope for Los Angeles is that Harris can be a high-tier slot receiver, at the very least.
