Los Angeles selected Slater with the No. 13 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft out of Northwestern. Slater has been the Chargers' primary left tackle since 2021, starting and appearing in 19 of a possible 20 games. He was selected to the Pro Bowl as a rookie.

With Slater out, Storm Norton and Trey Pipkins III are the Chargers' active offensive tackles.

The Chargers also lost wide receiver Jalen Guyton to a serious injury during Sunday's game. The four-year pro suffered a torn ACL and will miss the remainder of the 2022 season, per the NFL Network.
