The Chargers spent a lot of time in an airplane last season, finishing as the third-most traveled team in the NFL.
How do the Bolts fare this upcoming season with the amount of miles that’ll be tacked up?
Traveling quite a bit will once again be a common thing for the Chargers this year as they are set to travel a total of 25,455 miles, which marks the fourth-highest, right behind the Seahawks, Rams and 49ers.
Los Angeles has to embark on 9,794 more miles than the Chiefs (15,661). That’s the biggest disparity between any two division rivals in the league this season, according to ESPN’s Stats & Info.
This statistic shouldn’t come as much of a surprise because L.A. is furthest on the west coast.
While there are more local games like those against their rivals in the AFC West, the Chargers have to go all the way to the east coast to take on the Buccaneers, Dolphins, Bills, Saints, as well as the season opener against the Bengals.
Regardless of the location, the Bolts are eager to pick up as many victories as possible in hopes of turning things around after a disappointing 2019 season.
