2024 Los Angeles Chargers season
65th season in franchise history

The 2024 season was the Los Angeles Chargers' 55th in the National Football League (NFL), their 65th overall, their ninth in the Greater Los Angeles Area, their fifth playing their home games at SoFi Stadium, and their first under head coach Jim Harbaugh and new general manager Joe Hortiz. The Chargers improved on their 5–12 record from 2023 following a Week 10 victory against the Tennessee Titans. With a win over the New England Patriots in Week 17, the Chargers clinched a wild card spot, returning to the playoffs after a one-year absence, but lost to the Texans by a score of 32–12 in the Wild Card round. The Chargers' strong defense finished the season with only 301 points allowed, the fewest in the league. Their .647 winning percentage was their best since 2018.
This is the first season since 2012 without wide receiver Keenan Allen on the roster, as he was traded to the Chicago Bears on March 14. This made Joey Bosa and Denzel Perryman the last players that were on the Chargers during their time in San Diego. However, Allen returned to the Chargers for the following season.

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “2024 Los Angeles Chargers season” as 65th season in franchise history. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as 65th season in franchise history. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 5, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q124167299. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2024, 2023, 2018 and 2012.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
