The Chargers like to have a number of bigger bodies up front, so while Ogbonnia will rotate snaps frequently, expect the 24-year-old to serve a critical role up front. Read Past Outlooks

2024 Fantasy Outlook
The third-year pro is poised to take over as the starting nose tackle after Austin Johnson left via free agency, but Ogbonnia will likely share work with veteran addition Poona Ford, especially in obvious running situations. The 2022 fifth-round pick has played in just 15 total games through two seasons due to various lower-body injuries.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Recovery timeline uncertain
Ogbonnia, who suffered a season-ending quadriceps injury in Week 10 of the 2022 campaign, doesn't yet have a firm return timeline as mandatory minicamp and training camp approach, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The rookie fifth-round pick had gotten his pro career off to a solid start with 14 tackles across his first 133 defensive snaps over seven games before going down with the injury. Ogbonnia's absence in the interior of the Chargers defensive line contributed to Los Angeles ultimately surrendering an elevated 144.2 rushing yards per contest, and with his return timeline still uncertain as summer approaches, Los Angeles opted to sign some veteran insurance in the form of Nick Williams on Friday.
