Chargers Must Lock Up Tuipulotu | Los Angeles Chargers News
Description
The Chargers are quietly building a Harbaugh-ready roster, but one critical move remains: locking up edge rusher Tuli Tuipulotu before the 2026 season. After a breakout rookie year with 13.5 sacks, Tuipulotu is entering his final year of his deal and has become a vital piece of their pass rush alongside Khalil Mack. GM Joe Hortiz has made it clear he wants Tuipulotu around for the long haul — now it’s time to make it official with a contract extension. Waiting risks a steep price tag and delays certainty; signing now secures a cornerstone player, aligns with Harbaugh’s physical defense philosophy, and eliminates offseason uncertainty. No holdout expected — but action must come soon to reward homegrown talent before his value skyrockets.
