His value the past two seasons cannot be underestimated, especially while helping them return to the playoffs last season for the first time since the 2018 season.
With an NFL-leading 38 touchdowns over the past two seasons, conventional wisdom suggested versatile Chargers running back Austin Ekeler had plenty of leverage heading into the final year of the $24.5-million contract he signed with the team after a breakout season in 2019.
DeShaun Watson’s fully guaranteed $230 million deal with the Cleveland Browns set the standard for quarterbacks when he signed as a free agent last year. Ekeler’s value to the Chargers’ offense the past two seasons cannot be underestimated, especially while helping them return to the playoffs last season for the first time since the 2018 season. He led them with 915 yards rushing, 107 receptions and 18 total touchdowns.
