- Njoku was the 29th overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft and spent nine years with the Cleveland Browns, earning a Pro Bowl selection in 2023 with career-best stats.
- He completed a four-year, $54.75 million contract with the Browns in 2025 before joining the Chargers.
- Njoku will join a Chargers offense led by coordinator Mike McDaniel, adding to a tight end group that includes Oronde Gadsen, who had 664 receiving yards as a rookie in 2025.
- Njoku’s signing does not impact compensatory draft picks for either the Chargers or Browns due to his extended free agency period.
