Keelan Doss is 6'3" while Jalen Guyton and Joshua Palmer are both listed at 6'1".

In addition to the wideouts, the Chargers have 6'8" Donald Parham fronting a tight end group where everyone else is at least 6'3". During an appearance on The Season with Peter Schrager, offensive coordinator Kellen Moore said the team will be taking advantage of that size come the fall.

"Having versatility on the offense, which I think we're really, really excited about being able to use guys in different positions ," Moore said. "Align them in different ways and utilize all that. We like to say we've got so much height on this team, we're going to be throwing in a different jet stream. These guys . . . it's gonna be a lot of fun."
