It’s the end of the road for right tackle Joe Barksdale, who was released by the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday:

Barksdale issued the following statement on Twitter, thanking the Chargers.

I just want to take a moment to say thank you to the Chargers organization and all of the true die hard Charger Fans. Since 2015 this team has been my home and my teammates my family. I will truly miss everyone, but look forward to what the future has in store for me. — Joseph Barksdale (@jbdale72) December 3, 2018

The memories will be up and down, but for what he made, Barksdale was a fine addition. He was brought in to be the right tackle until the team found someone. That someone is Sam Tevi – at least, currently. Barksdale joined the Bolts in 2015 as an unrestricted free agent. He appeared in 48 games at right tackle over the past four seasons for the Chargers, including 42 starts.

When Barksdale returned from injury, he was splitting snaps with Tevi. After a couple of inconsistent games, he was released. For now, that’s all we know. In the corresponding move, the team brought back Dylan Cantrell, the sixth round rookie receiver out of Texas Tech. Here’s the scoop on him:

The 6-3, 226-pound Cantrell was the Chargers’ sixth-round pick (191st overall) in this year’s draft out of Texas Tech. He appeared in 46 career games with the Red Raiders with 29 starts, totaling 158 receptions for 1,873 yards and 18 touchdowns. Cantrell suffered a minor injury at the start of training camp that sidelined him the entire preseason. He spent the first 13 weeks of the year on the team’s practice squad.

Cantrell is a high-level athlete. This move makes you wonder if Tyrell Williams is healthy and Cantrell is his replacement.
