The Chargers are looking to trade cornerback Desmond King ahead of the trade deadline on Nov. 3.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Los Angeles is shopping King, and that multiple teams have inquired.
This comes the day after L.A. ruled King out from Sunday’s loss to the Broncos for non-injury related reasons. Following the game, coach Anthony Lynn said King not playing was a “team decision.”
King, the former All-Pro defensive back and punt returner, is in the final year of his rookie contract.
After the signing of Chris Harris Jr., his playing time decreased drastically. King saw an uptick of snaps after Harris was placed on the injured reserve weeks ago, but his play has been a model of inconsistency.
In 2019, King experienced a down season, issues off the field and run-ins with the staff.
Should the Chargers choose to ship King, draft picks or offensive line help are among the things that the team could look to get in return.
In four seasons, King has amassed 213 tackles, 17 passes defensed, 14 tackles for loss and four forced fumbles.
