The Chargers added some much-needed help for their depleted offensive line minutes before Tuesday’s NFL trade deadline arrived.
Los Angeles relinquished a 2027 sixth-round pick to New Orleans in exchange for versatile offensive lineman Trevor Penning, a 2022 first-round selection. This move comes a day after the Chargers announced that stud left tackle Joe Alt sustained a season-ending ankle injury in the Week 9 win against the Titans. The team had already lost star tackle Rashawn Slater for the year back in the preseason.
