The Los Angeles Chargers have a pair of star tackles in Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt—they simply need them to be healthy.
Writer G.C. Bellchamber argues that the Los Angeles Chargers should not move left tackle Rashawn Slater to guard despite his persistent injury issues and early-season struggles. Slater remains on injured reserve with a high ankle sprain following a torn patellar tendon that sidelined him for the entire previous season.
Bellchamber asserts that keeping Slater alongside Joe Alt at tackle remains the Chargers' optimal configuration. The column notes that alternative options like Trey Pipkins III and rookie Travis Burke are not yet suitable full-time replacements, concluding that moving Slater inside would be premature.
