Tomlinson is the grown-up in the middle. He has made a career out of showing up, absorbing work and making life easier for everyone around him. The Chargers do not need him to chase gaudy numbers; they need him to anchor the front, close run lanes and give the young interior players a reliable example.
Strengths: Exceptional durability, powerful interior anchor, veteran awareness and enough career rush production to keep guards honest. He can stabilize multiple front looks.
Weaknesses: At 32, snap management matters, and his game is more steady than explosive. He is not a pure high-volume penetrator, so the surrounding rush needs to supply complementary pressure.
