Los Angeles has scheduled a meeting with the Texas A&M guard they’ve been connected to throughout the offseason.
The Los Angeles Chargers have scheduled a Top-30 visit with Texas A&M guard Chase Bisontis after being linked to the projected second-round pick throughout the pre-draft process.
Evan Pilat - Texas A&M AthleticsA Ramsey, NJ native, Bisontis spent all three seasons of his college career with the Aggies, earning Third-Team All-SEC honors in 2025 and First-Team All-SEC recognition as a freshman in 2023. This past season, Bisontis allowed 12 total pressures and one sack across 441 pass-blocking snaps.
The 21-year-old recently participated in the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine, measuring six-foot-five, 315 pounds with 31 3/4-inch arms and 9 3/4-inch hands. According to Next Gen Stats, his total score of 77 ranked fourth among participating guards, while his production score of 70 ranked 11th and his estimated athleticism score of 81 placed sixth at the position.
Bisontis is a physical and fundamentally sound interior lineman, pairing strong hands with sturdy lower-half power and controlled footwork to create consistent movement in the run game. His competitive edge and ability to stay engaged through contact make him an efficient in both zone concepts and downhill schemes. While his pass protection can be somewhat tentative, it’s still serviceable and could improve with NFL-level coaching.
In terms of the guard position for Los Angeles and the moves they've already made this offseason, the team re-signed Trevor Penning to a one-year, $4.5 million deal, added veteran Cole Strange on a two-year, $13 million contract and also agreed to terms with Kayode Awosika earlier this week.
That said, none of these moves fully solidify the interior offensive line, making it likely the Chargers could still target the position in the draft. Whether as a developmental option or a potential plug-and-play contributor, adding competition would be a smart move for Los Angeles.
Depending on how the rest of the board falls, Bisontis could find himself in range for Los Angeles as a Day 2 selection, particularly if the Bolts decide to address another position early, such as wide receiver or defensive line. Prospects with his combination of size and experience against top-tier SEC competition don’t always last long into the second round, which could force the Chargers to weigh positional value against need while monitoring how quickly interior linemen come off the board. If the front office views him as a potential long-term starter, it may require acting decisively rather than waiting for the board to come to them, especially if multiple teams show interest in bolstering the position.
