The 1988 San Diego Chargers season began with the team trying to improve on their 8–7 record in 1987. It was Al Saunders's final season as the team's head coach.
Before the season, the Chargers made modifications to their uniforms, changing the color of the helmet and jersey from royal blue to a darker navy blue. They also switched the colors on the lightning bolt: it went from a yellow bolt with a white outline to a white bold with a yellow outline. The team's facemasks also changed from yellow to navy blue. They would keep this helmet and uniform through the 2006 season.
