NFL Network was the first outlet to report the news.
Justin Herbert gets another proven target on an affordable price tag for the team. Chark is a six-year NFL wideout. Los Angeles had no receiver with more than three years in the NFL or a season with over 800 yards before the signing.
Chark totaled 35 receptions for 525 yards and five touchdowns last season for the Carolina Panthers. At 6'4, he is a big bodied target.
