Los Angeles pulls out the checkbook to protect Justin Herbert. According to Tom Pelissero of NFL media, the Chargers will sign former Packers Corey Linsley. Imperial in 2020 with the Packers, the former Ohio State was named to the All Pro first team last season.
It is obviously a great reinforcement for a franchise in search of talent on the line, weak point of the team last season. The contract is for 5 years and $ 62.5 million, so Linsley becomes the highest paid center in the league.
The #Chargers are expected to sign all-pro center Corey Linsley, per sources. The longtime #Packers standout has a new home on a deal expected to make him the NFL’s highest-paid center.
