Chargers tacklers Rashawn Slater a ruptured biceps tendon in Sunday’s loss to Jacksonville and is expected to miss the rest of the 2022 season, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The news makes Sunday’s defeat even more costly. Slater had a stellar rookie season and entrenched himself as Los Angeles’ left tackle of the future, a long-term protector of franchise quarterback Justin Herbert. Unfortunately for the Chargers, a week after Herbert suffered a painful rib cartilage injury, his blindside blocker an even more serious that will likely sustained end his campaign after just three games.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Slater finished the 2021 season with a strong Pro Football Focus offensive grade of 83.6, and through three weeks, was on his way to an even better second year with a grade of 84, a mark powered by excellent run-blocking ability. Instead of continuing at a strong pace, the biceps injury will end his sophomore season in its first month.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Storm Norton replaced Slater at left tackle and struggled mightily, allowing eight pressures — the most surrendered by any member of the Chargers on Sunday — despite playing half of the team’s total pass-blocking snaps in the game, per PFF.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

LA will have to look inward to determine the best course for replacing Slater. Regardless of whom the Chargers choose, the task will be a tall one for a team with playoff aspirations that is suddenly reeling after two straight losses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
