The Los Angeles Chargers have agreed to a two-year deal with guard Mekhi Becton, the team announced on Friday.
Becton is perhaps the most important signing of free agency for the Chargers. L.A.'s most significant weakness last season was the team's interior offensive line, and the Chargers struggled to build the effective rushing attack that coach Jim Harbaugh promised because of their struggles. The interior line graded amongst the worst in the NFL in run block win rate: C Bradley Bozeman (160th), LG Zion Johnson (165th) and RG Trey Pipkins III (188th).
