You can add Jalen Hurts to the list of potential quarterbacks for the Los Angeles Chargers.
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, LA was among the teams to hold a virtual meeting with the Oklahoma QB as they do their due diligence with all the available signal-callers.
Two interesting teams who have been in touch with and monitoring #OU QB Jalen Hurts: The #Packers and the #Chargers. Both had meetings set up with him and have done virtual calls. Both have a veteran (of varying degrees) in as the starter and are expected to look to the future.

Hurts could be an interesting pick for the Chargers if they choose to go ahead and take a Linebacker with their 6th overall selection. There are plenty of quarterbacks available in this year’s draft and Hurts should still be available for the Chargers to take in the 2nd or 3rd Round.
LA currently has Tyrod Taylor slotted in as their starter, but he does not have a ton of job security. While the Chargers will most likely give him every chance to hold the spot, it would be a mistake to not consider taking a QB with one of their first three picks.
