To be honest, I don’t recall the last time the Chargers’ defensive line wasn’t considered one of, if not, the top position group on the Chargers. Melvin Ingram has been with the team forever and it feels like Joey has as well, even though he was drafted four years after Ingram.
It’s because of this dynamic duo that the Chargers defensive lines are consistently ranked among the top units in the NFL. Most recently, Pro Football Focus pegged them as the ninth-best unit, falling just one spot behind Aaron Donald and the Rams.
