Hard to say. Losing Center Tyler Biadasz to a knee injury is a big deal, he was signed to a $30M/3yr contract to solidify the Oline. Now with Slater hurt again the offense looks weak. Chargers had made moves to bolster the Oline and increase depth. Slater’s knee injury may be a tweak and he is being held out from preseason practice and tonight’s game out of caution. But these early injuries in camp are destabilizing. They won’t win without a healthy Oline.
