Rashawn Slater

Chargers LT Rashawn Slater was not present at the team’s voluntary OTAs.

Slater is awaiting a contract extension as he enters his fifth season with the Chargers. The former No. 13 overall pick has made two Pro Bowls while starting all of his 51 games played over four years. He is the Chargers’ starting left tackle and is due $19.05 million this season on his fifth-year option. A lucrative extension would get Slater paid for the long haul while also reducing his potential cap hit for 2025. The Chargers have been in negotiations with Slater, and while we have not reached holdout territory, this is an extension situation to monitor for Justin Herbert’s blindside.
