The Chargers traded for Trevor Penning before the trade deadline, but a pair of different tackles will likely get the start on Sunday vs. the Steelers.
Right before the trade deadline buzzer, Joe Hortiz and Jim Harbaugh sent the Saints a 2027 sixth-round pick for Trevor Penning. Getting Penning in the fold earlier in the week meant that he would get a chance to get at least a few practices in before Sunday's game vs. Pittsburgh.
But at least for this week, the Chargers will opt against starting their new trade acquisition.
