Offensive Lineman · Los Angeles Chargers

Rashawn Slater

No. 70 · 6th season

Rashawn Slater walked off practice and the Chargers held their breath

An offensive line is only as good as the people holding it together. When one of those people leaves the field early, everyone notices.

Rashawn Slater is the kind of player a franchise builds around — the person who keeps the quarterback upright while the rest of the offense does its job. He left a Los Angeles Chargers practice session with what looked like an injury, and the team, already dealing with concerns along their offensive line, now has one more thing to watch.

There is not much more that is confirmed right now. But that is sometimes the point — the moment a player goes down, the questions start before the answers do.

For a Chargers team that needs its line intact, even a question mark next to Slater's name carries weight. What kind of injury, how serious, how long — all of that is still ahead.
