What happened: The Chargers posted that Joe Alt and Rashawn Slater are "ready to work" ahead of the 2026 season. Coach Jim Harbaugh has indicated both starting tackles are on track to be available for the start of training camp.

Why it matters: Slater and Alt are the Chargers' franchise tackles, anchoring the offensive line that protects the quarterback and sets the tone for the run game. Having both healthy entering camp removes a major question mark from a unit central to the team's 2026 plans.

What to watch: Watch for confirmation once training camp opens on whether both tackles take full reps from day one rather than easing back on a ramp-up schedule.
