Chargers LB Daiyan Henley determined to build on breakout year: ‘There’s so much more for me’
Our Summary
In his first full season as a starter, Chargers linebacker Daiyan Henley emerged as a key player, leading the team with 147 tackles and contributing significantly to a defense that ranked first in NFL scoring. Despite his impressive performance, Henley remains committed to self-improvement and leadership, especially after the departure of veteran Joey Bosa. Teammate Derwin James praises Henley's potential, noting his growing influence and leadership skills. While Henley acknowledges the gap between himself and top linebackers like Zack Baun, he is focused on reaching his All-Pro potential, keeping his specific goals private but aiming to continue his upward trajectory.
