The Los Angeles Chargers on Tuesday acquired outside linebacker Odafe Oweh in a trade with the Ravens.
The Bolts also received a 2027 seventh-round pick (via the Rams) in exchange for safety Alohi Gilman and a 2026 fifth-round pick. The finalized deal is pending a physical.
Here are five things to know about Oweh:
1. Productive off the edge
The Chargers are getting a disruptive player in the 26-year-old pass rusher.
The 31st overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, Oweh has been a productive player throughout his NFL career.
Oweh has played 67 games (25 starts) and tallied 23.0 sacks, 26 tackles for loss, 66 quarterback hits and seven forced fumbles since entering the league.
He's also been a disruptive player in both all facets with 199 total pressures in his career thus far, according to Pro Football Focus, including what was a team-leading 12 through five games in 2025.
2. Career year in 2024
Oweh is coming off his best season as a pro last year.
The outside linebacker had a breakout year in 2024 as he played in all 17 games (10 starts) for the Ravens and grabbed a career-high 10.0 sacks, nine tackles for loss and 23 quarterback hits.
Oweh finished the season with a 16-percent pass rush win rate, according to ESPN, which was good for 17th among edge rushers in the regular season.
He also recorded 16 run stops, according to PFF, as he helped Baltimore's defense rank first against the run allowing just 80.1 yards per game.

3. Reuniting with Hortiz
Add another connection to Joe Hortiz in the mix.
The Chargers General Manager's move brings to him a player he is very well familiar with in Oweh, who was drafted to Baltimore while Hortiz was in the front office.
Hortiz was the Director of Player Personnel for the Ravens in 2021 when they took the outside linebacker late in the first round, and Corey Krawiec, the Chargers Director of Player Personnel Strategy, was also with the Ravens as the team's Manager, Player Evaluation and Analytics.
Oweh would contribute to the team from the jump as a rookie by notching 5.0 sacks, three forced fumbles and 15 quarterback hits in 15 games as a rookie on his way to earning an PFWA All-Rookie Team selection.
4. Wreaking havoc for Nittany Lions
Oweh played collegiately at Penn State, where he wasted no time in making an impact.
He saw action as a true freshman and finished his career playing in 24 career games (eight starts) and posting 63 tackles (37 solo), 13.5 tackles for loss, 7.0 sacks and 2 FFs.
His best season came in his final one, where he earned First-Team All-Big Ten honors by league coaches during the 2020 season.
5. Bolstering the edge
This move brings some even more fire power to the Chargers outside linebacker room as Khalil Mack works his way back from Injured Reserve with an elbow injury.
Oweh joins a group currently led by Tuli Tuipulotu, who has notched 4.0 sacks so far and ranks fourth among edge rushers with 27 pressures this year, according to PFF.
He will also join up with Bud Dupree, Caleb Murphy and Kyle Kennard, who have all played roles in the last couple of games.
In the short term, Oweh provides a big boost along the edge, but when Mack returns to play — he is eligible to have his practice window opened as soon as next week — the Bolts will be able to have a number of lethal players rushing the passer.
