00:00Dino's not going to be there in the regular season this year with Sean Slater, star left tackle of the Los Angeles Chargers, a devastating injury.
00:06Because when you handicap that football team, the strength of the Chargers is the offensive line.
00:12The strength of the Chargers being able to run the football, the strength of the Chargers being able to hold off that pass rush and let Justin Herbert, you know, sort of matriculate that ball downfield.
00:21What a devastating injury, which also understand this.
00:24That's a patella injury.
00:25Like that is a serious injury.
00:26There are no guarantees that you just pop back, Joe, and you're back to normal.
00:30Even in a year at this point, hopefully the surgery goes well.
00:32But for a guy, it's a double-edged sword for the organization, right?
00:35Paid the guy because you want to.
00:37He's a superstar.
00:38But that said, superstar gets injured later.
00:4092 million in guarantees.
00:42He's going to be just fine the rest of his career, whether or not he wants to play again or not.
00:46But for the Chargers this year in 2025, the injuries also, Joe, they just don't stop.
00:50You lose your superstar left tackle.
00:51There's no saying that you can even get a decent left tackle and he could even stay healthy for the season itself.
00:56Yeah, it's tough, man, because the offensive line was going to be one of the biggest strengths of this team.
01:04And nobody knows it better than Coach Harbaugh there.
01:08But, you know, you can't replace a guy like this.
01:12The good news is they have another young guy in ALT, the former Notre Dame offensive lineman, who knows a lot about left tackle.
01:22He's played a lot of it.
01:24And they might have to switch him over there now to protect Herbert.
01:29But what do you – you can't – the guy's only given up three sacks and over 500 dropback attempts, man.
01:35That's why they gave him the extension that they gave him here.
01:40This is the guy literally in charge of protecting Herbert's blindside.
01:44And now, unfortunately, stupid freak injury during practice.
01:48Guy falls into his leg, and here we are.
01:51He's out for the entire year.
01:53It's just unfortunate.
01:54He's out for the entire year.
02:08We can't do that anymore.
02:09We can't do that anymore.
02:10Keep listening.
02:12We can't do that anymore.
02:12We can't do that anymore.
02:16This time I'm not not going to lose my son.
02:18You have been right after he was aging in this case or translate the TschetskiifierPOint,
02:21and he wasn't waiting for that question in case I Livingston.
