Jim Harbaugh is the man in charge on the West Coast when it pertains to the Chargers.
The Chargers are more than $45 million over the projected salary. Keeping their four aging stars seems untenable.
Despite boasting a bevy of star players regarded as among the best at their positions in the NFL, the Los Angeles Chargers have been underachievers in recent seasons, and when they were good, they blew a 27-0 lead in the playoffs.
This offseason, the team hired away Jim Harbaugh from the University of Michigan and paired him with new general manager Joe Hortiz.
In order to overhaul the roster, tough decisions will have to be made, and that includes trading star edge rushers Joey Bosa and Khalil Mack after the new league year begins in March.
Harbaugh and Hortiz this spring are likely to move on from Mack, who has enjoyed two productive seasons in Los Angeles since the franchise acquired him from the Chicago Bears.

Bosa is owed well over $20 million next season and has been dealing with injuries that have cost him much of the past two years.
The third overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft has only played in every regular-season game just once in his career. Not to mention, the four-time Pro Bowler is getting closer to his 300th birthday.
Mack recorded a career-high 17 sacks in 2023 to go with 22 quarterback hits, 21 tackles for loss, and 10 QB knockdowns.
As Jim Harbaugh prepares for his second head coaching job in the NFL, he is already facing some tough decisions but if the Charges want the same type of success that he had with the 49ers, they should allow him to do his thing.
