The Los Angeles Chargers are on a two-game losing streak after starting the season off with three straight wins.
The passing game for the Bolts has not been up to the usual par the last two weeks, with quarterback Justin Herbert having more interceptions than passing touchdowns. Herbert has thrown for 369 yards in the span with only two touchdowns and three interceptions.
In the first three weeks of the 2025 season, Herbert had 860 passing yards with seven touchdowns and only a single interception.
The main targets for Herbert have been the wide receivers, who account for more than half of his passing yardage and the majority of his touchdown passes, while the tight ends on the roster have not seen much production.
Needing a big body threat in the redzone, an NFL analyst reveals his trade proposal to get a high-scoring tight end to the City of Angels.
David Njoku To Los Angeles?

Bleacher Report’s Alex Kay drops a trade idea that will land the Bolts’ tight end David Njoku from the Cleveland Browns. The trade proposal will require the Bolts to give up a 2026 fourth-round pick to receive Njoku’s talents.
“Tight end David Njoku continues to be one of Cleveland’s most reliable offensive players, but he is also one of the Browns’ most sensible trade chips,” Knox wrote. “Harold Fannin Jr. has impressed and appears poised to take over as Cleveland’s long-term starting tight end. Through five weeks, the rookie has caught 21 passes for 173 yards and a touchdown.”
“While there’s value in having two pass-catching tight ends—especially for a team trying to support a young signal-caller—the Browns have to be thinking long-term… Njoku is set to be a free agent in 2026, and Cleveland should be able to get, at worst, a middle-round pick for him.”
The possibility of joining the Chargers should intrigue Njoku. He would join the 3-2 team while leaving behind the Browns, who are currently 1-4 and don’t currently have a solid answer on who will be the long-term answer at quarterback for the organization.
Knox also notes that rookie tight end Harold Fannin is currently seeing a rise in usage in Cleveland that could bump Njoku out of the starting role.

The Los Angeles Chargers currently have three tight ends in the position group. Adding David Njoku would give the Bolts a packed group.
LA signed Tyler Conklin in free agency and selected Oronde Gadsden in the 2025 NFL Draft, showing how much they prioritized the tight end position.
The team will likely move one player off the roster to trim the group down, with the possibility of trading a tight end to the Browns.
Adding David Njoku would give the Chargers a reliable player and a threat to the endzone for Justin Herbert.
