Left Guard Battle Heats Up at Camp | Los Angeles Chargers News

Day three of Chargers training camp wrapped up with a padded-free, 90-minute session focused squarely on the left guard battle — where Trey Pipkins III, fresh from right guard and tackle, is now in the mix alongside Kayode Awosika, Jake Slaughter, and Trevor Penning. Coach Jim Harbaugh made it clear: no decision yet — real evaluation won’t happen until pads hit Tuesday. The lighter practice was intentional, letting players recover physically while sharpening mental focus, even as QB Justin Herbert drilled footwork with a weighted ball and WR Ladd McConkey praised the discipline required. Early situational work also kicked in, simulating end-of-half clock management to prep for the opener. This left guard showdown? Just getting started — and it’s shaping up to be one of the most compelling storylines as camp heats up. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
