Chargers’ two trades Sunday: 🏈They acquired a 2027 sixth-round pick from the Seahawks in exchange for cornerback Avery Via @AdamSchefter on X

What happened: Seattle Seahawks cornerback Avery Smith cost a 2027 sixth-round pick, while Carolina Panthers defensive lineman Terah Edwards cost a 2028 sixth-rounder. Both transactions remain pending physicals.

Why it matters: Edwards recorded 10 tackles across three 2026 preseason games. Smith impressed during camp, but Los Angeles still extracted draft value from an undrafted rookie at a crowded position.
