The Chargers added depth to the offensive line with the selection of former Clemson tackle Jordan McFadden.
While all of his playing time came on the outside in college, McFadden’s shorter stature might suggest a position change inside. But he has the experience and athleticism to play tackle in a pinch.
To get familiar with the newest member of the Bolts, here are some of McFadden’s highlights at Clemson.
New Chargers OL Jordan McFadden
+ Fluid footwork in pass protection
+ Upper body strength, length and leverage to keep rushers at bay
+ Great at sealing backside of run plays
+ Experience (Over 2,800 snaps)
+ Position flexibility

Clemson OT Jordan McFadden plays with quick feet, displays good patience and always keeps his head up. Watch him show that here while anchoring his feet into the ground to stop any pressure. https://t.co/BKjA4yQ8Qm pic.twitter.com/U7gYb08SBF

#Clemson OL Jordan McFadden worked out at center at #NFLCombine and at Pro Day today.
Ran a sub-5.0 forty at the Combine and looked smooth today.
Interviewed all week at #ShrineBowl after just not being fully cleared, but he’s making the most of this draft process. pic.twitter.com/YLf9677b42

Clemson LT Jordan McFadden climbing to the third level and casually throwing a DB. Kick him inside in a zone scheme and he’s got the potential to be a top guard prospect in the 2023 NFL Draft. pic.twitter.com/ouFl3HxkNl

Looking for an OT outside of round 1? How about @ClemsonFB LT Jordan McFadden. Impressive player on game day routinely taking defenders out of the play and had a solid showing in Indy. pic.twitter.com/Q0lZlZtYki
