Awosika, Slaughter Reclaim Chargers Left Guard Battle as 2-Man Rotation Returns

Summary
Monday's Chargers practice restored Kayode Awosika and Jake Slaughter as the main first-team left guard rotation after several other linemen cycled through the spot over the previous four days.
Day 1 of training camp had opened with the same duo sharing first-team reps, making their return the clearest sign yet that the competition has narrowed back to the original frontrunners.
Trevor Penning, Trey Pipkins and Branson Taylor had all taken turns with the starters during that stretch, but none held the role as the camp battle remained unsettled.
If the Week 1 pattern continues, Awosika and Penning could handle the next first-team rotation while Slaughter splits time between left guard and center with the second unit.
