Chargers Sign Mekhi Becton, Upgrade Offensive Line

As the 2025 NFL free agency progresses, the Los Angeles Chargers have made several key moves, including the signing of guard Mekhi Becton to a two-year deal, addressing a critical need in their offensive line. Becton, previously with the Eagles, aims to improve the Chargers' run game, which struggled last season. However, the team's general manager, Joe Hortiz, has faced criticism for a lack of high-impact signings despite having significant cap space, leading to mixed reactions from fans. The Chargers also re-signed key players like Khalil Mack on a one-year, fully guaranteed deal and added running back Najee Harris, although there are concerns about his career average of fewer than four yards per carry. Additionally, the team is looking to bolster its defensive line after losing Poona Ford, signing Da’Shawn Hand and Naquan Jones to improve depth. Despite the initial slow start to free agency, the Chargers are expected to make further moves as they prepare for the upcoming draft and training camp.
