NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reports Chargers center Tyler Biadasz injured several ligaments in his left knee and is facing a long-term absence, though Garafolo cautioned the team is still running tests and gathering additional opinions, leaving an outside chance the injury does not cost him the full season. Biadasz was carted off Tuesday’s joint practice with the 49ers after San Francisco defensive tackle Sebastian Valdez fell into his leg during an 11-on-11 drill, and he could not put weight on it. Rookie second-round pick Jake Slaughter has taken over the starting center reps with the first team. Los Angeles signed Biadasz to a three-year, $30 million deal to stabilize the interior line in front of Justin Herbert. (source: ESPN, NFL Network/Mike Garafolo, NBC Sports, Sports Illustrated)
