NFL Free Agency 2022: Predicting one signing for all 32 teams
Los Angeles Chargers: David Njoku, TE (Browns)
There is no shortage of NFL teams that I think would be intriguing options for David Njoku in 2022.
Njoku is an athletic freak and despite already having spent five seasons with the Cleveland Browns, I think there’s a lot of untapped potential to his game that could absolutely be unlocked with the Los Angeles Chargers.
Not specifically because of their offensive scheme, but because of quarterback Justin Herbert.
Herbert has found ways to consistently get his playmakers the ball and maximize their talents, and Njoku would be no different in this offense.
Even though the Chargers passed on signing Hunter Henry to a big contract last offseason, I think with Jared Cook departing in 2022 in free agency, we could see them revisit the idea of paying a tight end this offseason.
This year’s free agent tight end group is outstanding, and Njoku is one of the highest upside options for any team to consider.
Adding him into the fray with the Chargers could be lethal to opposing defenses, especially if they are also able to find a way to retain Mike Williams.
