Chargers News: Fans React to Signing of DJ Chark

Matt Levine | May 3, 2024

The Los Angeles Chargers signed veteran wide receiver DJ Chark late on Thursday evening, adding more depth to their receiving room. The team had met with Chark a few weeks ago but has now made the signing official.

Los Angeles knew they needed to bring in multiple wide-outs this offseason and they've done just that. The team didn't have any receivers on their roster with more than three years of NFL experience so Chark is now the veteran on the team.

Last season with the Carolina Panthers, Chark posted 35 catches for 525 yards and five touchdowns. He will look to improve on those numbers, playing with star quarterback Justin Herbert this coming season.

The signing of Chark was a little surprising, at least the timing. But fans generally were happy with it. Here are some of the best reactions from the Los Angeles fanbase on the signing of Chark.

D.J. Chark stoked to have you in LA. I think you will be a fan favorite right away. Can't wait to see you on the field.

I like this pickup. We desperately needed a true X receiver and Chark is big, strong, fast, and cheap. If he can play anywhere close to where he did on his rookie contract it could be a ton of fun.

If nothing else he can stretch the field for McConkey and Palmer https://t.co/OKwK0ONk9J
