Chargers edge rusher Tuli Tuipulotu began training camp on Wednesday on the sidelines, working with trainers without his helmet and pads. That came after head coach Jim Harbaugh told reporters pre-practice that he expected every player to be on the field to begin camp.
Tuipulotu’s rookie deal expires after the 2026 season and it would come as no surprise if he were to “hold-in” in an effort to get a new deal done before they’re in the thick of camp.
Luckily, that doesn’t seem to be the case as Tuipulotu
hit the practice field with his teammates on Thursday, helmet in hand like everyone else, although it wasn’t a full day in the end. The third-year player stayed on the sidelines for all of team drills, but that’s progress nonetheless.
Here’s to hoping day three brings with it another step forward for No. 45.
