Los Angeles Chargers normal supervisor Joe Hortiz by accident uncovered himself for having a burner account on social media. (Possibly.) The 49-year-old put himself on blast whereas discussing probably the most urgent subject surrounding his group on the NFL Draft Mix.
He’s conscious of the chatter about huge receivers on X, previously referred to as Twitter, which suggests he have to be lively on the web site and/or app.
Hortiz was employed by the Los Angeles Chargers final January after a future with the Baltimore Ravens. All selections on participant personnel and scouting issues, together with free company and the NFL Draft undergo him. No person goes in or out with out his approval.
Thus, because the NFL Draft Mix will get underway in Indianapolis this week, all people needs to know what Hortiz plans to do with the No. 22 general choose in April. The Chargers want an edge rusher, defensive sort out, middle, security, tight finish and huge receiver. Not essentially in that order.
Justin Herbert is likely one of the most proficient quarterbacks within the Nationwide Soccer League. His supporting forged is underwhelming. Ladd McConkey was superior as a rookie however he can not do it by himself. Quentin Johnson has been largely underwhelming and Josh Palmer is greatest as WR3 and even WR4.
Los Angeles wants so as to add a reputable vertical risk to present McConkey — and Herbert — some reduction. However who may that be?
Should you had been to ask social media, the reply ranges from Cooper Kupp to Tetairoa McMillan to Keenan Allen to Roc Taylor and everybody in between. That’s Hortiz’s level. He mentioned on the NFL Draft Mix on Tuesday that he’s centered on the huge receivers on the roster and the huge receivers they’re evaluating within the draft and free company. It was a complete nonanswer.
We’re linked to each receiver on the market. It’s unbelievable. I imply, simply go on Twitter, and it’s like, “Oh, this man, this man, this man.”
— Joe Hortiz
Right here’s the catch. Hortiz doesn’t have an official account on X, previously Twitter, that’s hooked up to his identify. He doesn’t have a blue checkmark. His identify doesn’t even pull if you search it.

You can not scroll the primary X feed with out an account. So if he’s “happening Twitter” like he says, that means the existence of a burner account. Will the true Joe Hortiz please rise up?!
