Recently released OL Gabe Jackson should be target for Chargers
The Raiders released guard Gabe Jackson on Wednesday to save $9.6 million in cap space.
Now a free agent, Jackson should intrigue the Chargers, who are in desire of quality offensive linemen this offseason.
Jackson started 99 games since being selected in the third-round of the 2014 NFL draft.
In 4,409 snaps (since 2016), Jackson has only blown 71 of them (1.6%), per Sports Info Solutions.
Imagine Gabe Jackson and Rodney Hudson coming at you with a full head of steam….

For the majority of his career, Jackson has played right guard, but he offers the ability to play on the left side, too.
With Forrest Lamp a pending free agent and Trai Turner a possible cut candidate, Los Angeles could be looking to upgrade both spots.
Frank Smith, the new offensive line coach, spent the past three seasons with Las Vegas, so the familiarity may intrigue Jackson when he figures out his next destination.
