The 2023 season was the Los Angeles Chargers' 54th season in the National Football League (NFL), their 64th overall, their eighth in the Greater Los Angeles Area, their fourth playing their home games at SoFi Stadium, their eleventh and final under general manager Tom Telesco and their third and final under head coach Brandon Staley. The Chargers failed to improve on their 10–7 record from the previous season following a Week 12, 10–20 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. They then guaranteed a worse record following a Week 14, 7–24 loss to the Denver Broncos. Following a Week 15 blowout loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, both Brandon Staley and Tom Telesco were fired. With a Week 16 loss to the Buffalo Bills, the Chargers were eliminated from playoff contention.
Already struggling with a 5–7 start, the Chargers were dealt with a devastating blow when they lost franchise quarterback, Justin Herbert following a week 14 loss to the Denver Broncos to a broken finger. Los Angeles lost 7 games decided by 3 points or less, the most in the NFL. Their .294 winning percentage was their worst since 2015 when they were based in San Diego.
The Los Angeles Chargers drew an average home attendance of 69,736 in 9 home games in the 2023 NFL season.
