As the Los Angeles Chargers look to bolster their offensive line, free agency presents some intriguing options to address their interior line concerns. Let's dive into the potential veteran additions who could provide the stability and skill the Chargers need.
Isaac Seumalo
At 32, Isaac Seumalo brings a wealth of experience from his three seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Having just wrapped up his 10th professional season, Seumalo allowed four sacks and 20 pressures on 504 pass-blocking snaps, maintaining a clean slate with zero penalties over 827 snaps. Despite missing three games due to a recurring pectoral injury, his versatility and proven track record make him an attractive candidate.
Seumalo's journey began as a third-round pick for the Philadelphia Eagles, where he developed under the tutelage of renowned offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland. His ability to play multiple positions-left guard, center, and right guard-adds to his appeal. Given his consistent performance, he may still command a multi-year deal in free agency.
David Edwards
David Edwards is another strong contender, turning 29 in March. After three seasons with the Buffalo Bills and four with the Los Angeles Rams, Edwards is poised for his next chapter. In his latest season, he allowed four sacks and 32 pressures on 679 pass-blocking snaps, earning a career-high 75.0 pass-blocking grade from Pro Football Focus.
Edwards' 95% pass-block win rate ranked him 12th among 65 qualifying guards in 2025. His ability to play both guard and tackle could be invaluable for the Chargers, especially given last season’s injury woes. Expect Edwards to seek a multi-year deal in the $19 to $20 million range annually.
Wyatt Teller
Wyatt Teller, at 31, is set to leave the Cleveland Browns, where he's been a staple for the past seven seasons. A two-time All-Pro and three-time Pro Bowler, Teller played 13 games last season, dealing with ankle and calf injuries. Despite a career-low 53.1 pass-blocking grade, his run-blocking prowess remains a key strength.
Teller's market value is estimated between $10 to $15 million annually. With the Chargers’ current cap space, they have the financial flexibility to pursue him if they decide he's the right fit for their offensive line strategy.
As the Chargers evaluate these options, each veteran brings unique strengths that could fortify their offensive line, offering a blend of experience, versatility, and proven performance.
