2025 Fantasy Outlook
Alt was widely considered to be one of the best tackle prospects to come into the league in recent memory and the Notre Dame product largely lived up to that billing through the course of his rookie season. Between Alt and Rashawn Slater, the Chargers have arguably the best young tackle duo in the league, and the team should rely on them heavily in its run-first offensive scheme. Read Past Outlooks

Gets listed as questionable

October 22, 2025
Alt (ankle) is officially listed as questionable for Thursday's game versus the Vikings, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The Chargers only held a walk-through version of practice Wednesday, and Alt was estimated as a limited participant. Alt told reporters earlier in the week that he wanted to play in Week 8, and the Chargers would be in quite the bind at the tackle position if he had to sit out another week, as both projected starting right tackle Trey Pipkins (knee) and top backup Austin Deculus (ankle) are also designated as questionable for Thursday's contest.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
The No. 5 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, Alt is a hulking presence at 6-foot-8, 321 pounds and also a tone setter for the run-oriented regime that is expected to be established by new head coach Jim Harbaugh. A three-year starter at Notre Dame, Alt profiles as an excellent pass blocker, but he's also a significant road grader in his own right.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Expected to miss several weeks
OTLos Angeles Chargers
September 29, 2025
Alt is likely to miss multiple weeks after suffering a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's loss to the Giants, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
It's a big blow to the Chargers offense, as Alt had already slid over from right tackle to left tackle to replace Rashawn Slater, who was lost for the season in August with a knee injury. Austin Deculus, a sixth-round pick of the Texans in 2022 who has only one career start in the NFL, is the next man up to protect Justin Herbert's blind side.
