Chargers Lose Key Starters in NFL Free Agency: Odafe Oweh and Zion Johnson Join Commanders and Browns

The NFL free agency legal tampering window has opened, and the Chargers are already facing significant losses. Edge rusher Odafe Oweh has signed a four-year $100 million deal with the Commanders, while guard Zion Johnson has joined the Browns on a three-year $49.5 million contract. Both players were reliable starters for the Chargers, with Oweh setting a playoff record with three sacks against the Patriots last season. Fans are expressing frustration as the team now faces gaps in pass rush and the interior line. Johnson, a first-round pick in 2022, was durable and had a strong finish last season, ranking second among interior linemen in run-block win rate. With tampering still ongoing, more deals are expected to reshape rosters as teams like the Commanders and Browns build for next year, while the Chargers look for replacements.
