The Los Angeles Chargers face pressing concerns regarding their interior offensive line as they head into the offseason. Despite solid performances from tackles Rashawn Slater and rookie Joe Alt, the play of guards Zion Johnson, Bradley Bozeman, and Trey Pipkins III has been lackluster. With plans for immediate upgrades at these positions, there are speculations about Pipkins potentially being released to save $6.8 million against the cap. His transition from tackle to guard did not yield improved results, as he has struggled with pass protection, ranking near the bottom in pass-blocking grades. The Chargers must capitalize on available cap space to bolster their offensive line ahead of next season.
