Est. Return 10/13/2024
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Slater immediately picked up where he left off in 2022 before his season was ended prematurely due to a ruptured biceps, immediately solidifying an offensive line that struggled mightily due to injuries the previous season. While Slater did allow three sacks in the 2023 campaign and the offense as a whole finished with the eighth fewest rushing yards among NFL teams, little of that should be attributed to 2021 first-round pick, who figures to be one of the team's offensive leaders in an expected run-heavy scheme.

Won't play vs. Chiefs
Slater (pectoral) did not practice Friday and has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against Kansas City.
ANALYSIS
Slater injured his pectoral during the Chargers' Week 3 loss to the Steelers. He wasn't able to practice all week, but with the Bolts on a bye for Week 5, he'll have more time to rest and heal ahead of Week 6 against the Broncos on Oct. 13. Jamaree Salyer saw additional snaps in Week 3 after Slater left the game. Salyer and Foster Sarell are candidates to start at left tackle for Sunday's contest.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be back in postseason
Slater, who missed most of the season with a biceps injury, was designated to return from injured reserve Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Slater has been sidelined since Week 3 with a ruptured biceps. He has already been ruled out for the Chargers' wild-card round matchup against the Jaguars, but this move implies he could see action if the team is able to advance. Slater would slot back in as the starting left tackle and provide a significant boost to the offensive line.
