Rashawn Slater Likely Practicing During Extension Talks

2 weeks ago

According to Daniel Popper, left tackle Rashawn Slater is expected to practice while he discusses an extension with the Los Angeles Chargers. The team's general manager Joe Hortiz said he expects Slater to practice during ongoing contract talks. That being said, it seems the two sides should be close on a deal, considering Slater is willing to practice. Slater is in the final year of his deal and has shown good faith by showing up for minicamp and team activities. The expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowl left tackle will get a similar deal to Tristan Wirfs. Right now, Wirfs is currently the highest-paid left tackle, but Slater should be able to land a deal in a similar ballpark.
