The Chargers have their franchise quarterback in Justin Herbert, but that’s not stopping them from doing their homework on a local product who is earning more and more hype in the draft process as the draft inches closer.
According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the Chargers are one of a handful of teams who have recently met with UCLA quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson. The former Bruin played five collegiate seasons and finished his career with 10,710 passing yards and 88 touchdowns. He also rushed for 1,826 yards and 28 more touchdowns on the ground. In his final season under head coach Chip Kelly, DTR produced 3814 yards of offense and 39 total touchdowns (27 passing, 12 rushing).
