2024 NFL offseason: Free agency, draft questions for all 32 teams
NFL Nation reporters

Now that the 2023 NFL season is behind us and the 2024 offseason has begun, every team has a big question to face.
Can the Bengals find a way to keep Tee Higgins? How will the Broncos, Bears, Commanders, Falcons, Giants and Vikings address their quarterback conundrums? And which teams could surprise the league and release veterans to help get under the salary cap?
We asked our NFL Nation reporters to take a closer look at the biggest question each team will face this offseason and give their insight on what could happen over the next few months.
Los Angeles Chargers
How will the Chargers navigate their salary cap constraints?
The Chargers are projected to be $55 million over the salary cap, according to Roster Management System, with edge rushers Khalil Mack and Joey Bosa and wide receivers Keenan Allen and Mike Williams projected to have cap hits upward of $30 million next season.
These four are among the Chargers' best players and would be essential to turning this team around quickly under new coach Jim Harbaugh, but bringing all of them back isn't financially feasible. How the Chargers navigate the cap and what they do with these players will be the focus of this offseason. -- Kris Rhim
