Chargers officially release TE Will Dissly, OG Mekhi Becton
Key Points:
- The Los Angeles Chargers released offensive guard Mekhi Becton and tight end Will Dissly, and waived offensive tackle Savion Washington, freeing up significant salary cap space.
- Becton's release saves the Chargers $9.7 million on their 2026 salary cap, while Dissly’s departure saves an additional $4 million, increasing the team's cap space to approximately $98 million.
- Becton was signed last offseason to a two-year, $20 million deal and was due a $2.5 million roster bonus in 2026, leaving the Chargers needing a starting right guard for that season.
- Dissly’s release leaves Oronde Gadsden as the only tight end under contract, with Tyler Conklin
