Mekhi Becton
26-Year-Old
Free Agent
Released by Los Angeles
The Chargers released Becton on Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Becton signed a two-year, $20 million deal with the Chargers last offseason after winning the Super Bowl with the Eagles. In his lone season with Los Angeles, Becton appeared in 15 regular-season games, making 14 starts at right guard. He wasn't the same player he was with Philadelphia and will now be hunting for a new team.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
Becton has missed most of the past two seasons due to knee injuries, but the 2020 first-round pick has slimmed down heading into 2023 in hopes of rediscovering his strong rookie form. If he can stay healthy, the 6-foot-7 Becton has the talent to earn a starting offensive tackle role for the Jets.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Unlikely to be back with Bolts
Becton could be released by the Chargers this offseason, Tony Pauline of Essentially Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
The right guard was a disappointment in his first season with the team after signing a two-year, $20 million deal with the Chargers last offseason on the heels of winning a Super Bowl ring with the Eagles. Given the difficulties Los Angeles had protecting quarterback Justin Herbert in 2025 after starting tackles Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt were injured, a complete revamping of the interior offensive line could be coming. Becton would carry a dead cap hit of just $2.5 million if he were released.
