The Chargers selected Slater with the No. 13 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft. He’s approaching the final year of his five-year rookie contract that’s due to pay him $19 million in 2025 per a fifth-year team option.
The Chargers drafted Slater a year after selecting quarterback Justin Herbert in the draft. He’s emerged as a strong blindside protector for Herbert and one of the better offensive linemen in the NFL.
Slater was named second-team All-Pro and to the Pro Bowl during his rookie season. A biceps injury limited him to three games in his second season, but he returned to play 17 games in 2023 and 15 in 2024. He was named to the Pro Bowl for the second time last season.
