The Chargers ran a pro-style offense with zone running elements, requiring interior linemen to be quick and technically sound.
Tuerk's initial role would likely be as a backup center with potential to develop into a starter within a year or two, given his athleticism and intelligence.
He would not thrive in a power-run heavy scheme that prioritizes raw strength and size over quickness and technique.
His athleticism perfectly suits the Chargers' zone-blocking scheme, offering immediate depth with starter potential if he can add functional strength.
Selected #66 overall in Round 3 of the 2016 NFL Draft by San Diego Chargers out of USC.
