Zion Johnson Moving To Left Guard
2 years agoLos Angeles Chargers offensive guard Zion Johnson is moving back to his natural position at left guard this year, and he will now be playing between Rashawn Slater and Corey Linsley. That trio on the left side of the offensive line could turn into a scary weapon for the Chargers as they attempt to improve their rushing attack. "We're building this left side that is going to have some tremendous strength behind it," new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore said. Johnson was the 17th overall pick in last year's draft, and he started all 17 games in his first NFL campaign at right guard. Theoretically, the 23-year-old moving back to his natural position will make him more comfortable and more effective.
