The 2024 season will be the Los Angeles Chargers' upcoming 55th season in the National Football League, their 65th overall, their ninth in the Greater Los Angeles Area, and their first under head coach Jim Harbaugh and new general manager Joe Hortiz. They will play their home games at SoFi Stadium.
