The Los Angeles Chargers have a new starting guard. Late Friday night, the Chargers agreed to terms with free agent Mekhi Becton, upgrading one of the team’s biggest needs in front of quarterback Justin Herbert.

The Los Angeles Chargers closed out their first season under head coach Jim Harbaugh with an 11-6 record, but their playoff run was short-lived as they lost 32-12 to the Houston Texans in the Wild Card round.

The Los Angeles Chargers aim to build a stronger roster for the upcoming season, and Jim Harbaugh knows they must do everything possible to ensure Justin Herbert is well protected.
