The NFL’s legal tampering period opens up on Monday at 1 pm PT, with the new league year and free agency officially beginning on Wednesday.
Up to this point, the Chargers have been active, re-signing wide receiver Mike Williams and kicker Dustin Hopkins and trading for edge defender Khalil Mack.
After starting with the fourth-most salary cap space, Los Angeles has the 13th-most at $20.56 million, according to Over The Cap.
This accounts for Williams’ and Hopkins’ cap hit ($14 million) and $1.92 million, respectively, taking on Mack’s ($17.75 million).
The Bolts can free up some space if they decide to release some of their own, with tackle Bryan Bulaga being a cut-causality candidate. If they choose to let go of him, they will save $10.8 million.
