The Los Angeles Chargers wrapped up their 2025 NFL Draft class with an addition to the secondary by choosing Florida safety Trikweze Bridges.
The former Florida Gator was the second straight safety taken. by the Chargers, as the team selected Clemson safety R.J. Mickens in the sixth round.
Lance Zierlein of the official NFL website had this to ssay about Bridges before the start of the draft:
"Sixth-year senior with outstanding length and the versatility to take snaps as a zone corner or split safety. Bridges has played press corner but is fairly average at matching releases and routes. He’s more adept as an off-man or zone corner. He might be at his best as a roaming safety, utilizing his instincts, closing burst and ball skills to make plays on the football. He’s an aggressive striker against pass catchers but needs to prove he can eliminate arm tackling as a run supporter. Bridges' traits, versatility and special-teams potential give him a chance of making a team."
That covers it for the entire 2025 NFL Draft. The Chargers hit on big positions of need. Yes, everyone, relax, the team selected multiple wide receivers in the draft. Now, everyone anxiously awaits for the team to hit the field this summer.
