Los Angeles Chargers set to drop new documentary 'Recharged' ahead of clash with Kansas City Chiefs

'Recharged', their upcoming documentary series, gives an in-depth electric look at the team ahead of the new season that started last week

Looks like there is more content the Los Angeles Chargers have to offer after the conclusion of HBO's 'Hard Knocks: Los Angeles' where they shared screen space with fellow rivals, the Los Angeles Rams. The five-part docuseries traced the journey of both teams from the time the world was struck by the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic.

From following NFL's stringent safety protocols to player news and an inside look at the stars' lives, 'Hard Knocks' gave us enough to prepare for the new season. However, it does appear that the Chargers have more to offer for the world to see. On Wednesday, September 16, night, they tweeted a teaser of 'Recharged', their upcoming documentary series, set to release on September 18, that gives an in-depth electric look at the team ahead of the new season that started last week.

The 57-second clip starts with head coach Anthony Lynn saying, "I need you to listen to me real good, we have a hell of an opportunity here..." his face, a picture of seriousness. "Let's not waste it."

The scene immediately shifts to Tyrod Taylor, the new quarterback, "I'll be able to show what I can do," Taylor says as footage of the team practicing is shown. The next footage is all about how there is more to this journey than just the Super Bowl as an "End Racism' decal is applied to the Chargers' helmets. The teaser also provides a look at their new home base, the SoFi Stadium. The clip ends with footage of them celebrating their first win against the Cincinnati Bengals. 

By the looks of it, it seems 'Recharged' will trace the 2020 season of the Chargers. This probably means unparalleled access to dressing room conversations, player and coach profiles, replays of epic and pivotal game moments, and of course, some fun BTS. Twitter has been eager to find out what the content is as well as one of the fans hoped it would be better than 'Hard Knocks'.

"Hope this is better than Hard Knocks which was awful," one of the tweets read. You can watch the preview of the documentary here:

The Chargers will face the Kansas City Chiefs next on Sunday, September 20. 'Recharged' is slated to premiere on YouTube on Friday, September 18, 2020.
