Quick Facts

Position: CB (Cornerback)
Team: LAC (Los Angeles Chargers)
Draft: 2024, 5th round pick

2026 Outlook

Tarheeb Still is emerging as a cornerstone of the Chargers secondary under new defensive coordinator Chris O'Leary. The 2024 fifth-round pick played 84% of the team's defensive snaps in his sophomore 2025 season, posting 4 pass breakups while allowing a passer rating of just 95.6 across 489 coverage snaps—elite efficiency for a young player. Still was one of the league's best defensive rookies in 2024 and carried that momentum into 2025, establishing himself as a reliable option for coverage. However, he missed 15 tackles in 2025, and his slight frame may limit his physicality going forward. Still is completely secure in his role heading into 2026, with ample opportunity to continue developing alongside fellow cornerback Cam Hart. The Chargers will need both Still and Hart to continue taking strides in 2026, as their long-term contract extension decisions will likely come next offseason. Still must enter 2026 with forward momentum to solidify his place as a cornerstone of the Chargers defense. (per Chargers need some major offseason strides from pair of third-year defenders).
