@SleeperBot: In the 2024 NFL Draft, both the New England Patriots and the Minnesota Vikings reportedly inquired about the availability of quarterback Justin Herbert from the Los Angeles Chargers. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Chargers swiftly declined both offers due to their appreciation for Herbert and the dead salary-cap hit of over $60 million if they traded him. Speculation suggests that the Patriots and the Vikings hoped the Chargers might agree to a trade involving significant draft picks that could have allowed new Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh to work with his college quarterback J.J. McCarthy.
