The Los Angeles Chargers made fans wait longer than expected to get a big name at wide receiver for Justin Herbert this offseason and settled on Tre Harris in Round 2 of the NFL draft. 

Since fans have fallen in love with the idea of his fit in Herbert’s offense and even members of the organization have suggested that the rest of the NFL was sleeping on Harris’s possible No. 1 upside

Fans got their first look at the Herbert-to-Harris connection during practices on Monday.

It’s certainly a glimpse of things to come this summer at training camp and well beyond. The Chargers went light at wideout compared to expectations, drafting two rookies and bringing back Mike Williams.
