The Chargers came into the offseason needing reinforcements up front along the interior of the offensive line. They’ve added former Washington center Tyler Biadasz and offensive guard Cole Strange thus far, the latter of which played under Mike McDaniel in Miami during the 2025 season.

In all, the 27-year old has played in 50 total career games since entering the NFL and even has a start in the NFC Championship Game to his name. Awosika is a feel-good success story as a former undrafted free agent out of Buffalo who signed with the Eagles after going undrafted in 2021.
