Rashawn Slater

The Chargers designated Rashawn Slater to return from injured reserve on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

Slater won't play on Saturday against the Jaguars, but he could return if the Chargers advance. He has been sidelined since the end of September. His return would be huge for the Chargers offensive line and offense as a whole.

Rashawn Slater is out for the remainder of the season after suffering a ruptured biceps tendon Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Slater left the game in the third quarter and was replaced at left tackle by Storm Norton. With quarterback Justin Herbert dealing with a rib cartilage fracture, keeping the star quarterback protected is more important than ever. This is definitely a major loss for the Chargers and will negatively impact their playmakers.

Chargers LT Rashawn Slater has been activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list.

Fantasy Impact

Slater was forced to miss Thursday's Week 15 game vs the Kansas City Chiefs due to the virus. His presence will be a welcomed return as the team looks ahead to Sunday's Week 16 game vs the Houston Texans, a matchup that with the help of Slater should be a good one for all Los Angeles offensive players in fantasy.

Los Angeles Chargers LT Rashawn Slater (COVID-19) will be out on Thursday night as the Chargers take on the Chiefs in a key divisional matchup.

Fantasy Impact

Slater was unable to clear the league’s health and safety protocols today and has been ruled out for tomorrow’s divisional tilt. Trey Pipkins will fill in at LT for the Chargers in a crucial matchup that may determine whether they win the division or have to compete for a wild card spot.

The Chargers placed OL Rashawn Slater on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Fantasy Impact

This makes Slater unlikely to play in Thursday's AFC West showdown against the Chiefs. It's a massive blow for the Chargers as the rookie tackle has been playing extremely well this season.
