After trading up with the Browns, the Chargers selected former Memphis offensive tackle Travis Burke with the No. 117 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
After taking guard Jake Slaughter in the second round, Los Angeles elected to double-dip along the offensive line and take Burke, who will compete for the swing tackle job.
Standing 6-foot-9, Burke is a physical force with elite length (35-inch arms). He earned First-Team All-AAC honors in 2025 and finished with an 84.5 PFF grade, ranking among the nation’s top tackles. Known for a relentless finishing style, he allowed zero sacks over his final collegiate season.
His accolades include multiple AAC Offensive Lineman of the Week awards and a dominant East-West Shrine Bowl performance.
