2023 NFL draft: Chargers pick USC EDGE Tuli Tuipulotu with No. 54 overall selection

The Chargers have taken former USC edge defender Tuli Tuipulotu with the No. 54 overall selection in the 2023 NFL draft.

The Chargers needed more players capable of disrupting opposing quarterbacks behind Joey Bosa and Khalil Mack and Tuipolutu fits that billing, having logged 42 quarterback pressures and 13.5 sacks last season.

Tuipolutu was the 2022 Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year. He also had 22 tackles for loss, which was second in the nation.
