Chargers OL Gambles in Training Camp | Los Angeles Chargers News
Description
The Chargers’ offensive line is their biggest story heading into training camp, as new OC Mike McDaniel rolls out a zone-run scheme that demands athleticism over traditional guard play. With Joe Alt and Rashawn Slater expected back, the team’s hopes rest on rookies Jake Slaughter and Cole Strange — especially Slaughter, a second-round pick who played center in college but has zero NFL guard experience. Slaughter’s athleticism makes him a tantalizing fit, but he’s competing with Trevor Penning and Kayode Awosika, neither of whom have proven themselves at guard. Training camp will reveal if this gamble pays off — or if the Chargers are stuck with unproven backups. Uncertainty reigns.
