Tyler Biadasz, born November 20, 1997, in Amherst, Wisconsin, stayed local to play his high school ball at Amherst High School.
During his four years with the school, Biadasz played basketball, baseball and football, with football being his main sport.
In football, he was a defensive lineman and as a senior, he produced 70 tackles, seven sacks, five forced fumbles and one interception, earning three-star recruiting status according to 247Sports.
He committed to Wisconsin to convert to an offensive lineman, eventually with his home position being Center.
Once at Wisconsin, he redshirted his freshman season, giving himself more time to learn the transition to Center.
Once ready in 2017, he started 14 games and earned third-team All-Big Ten honors.
2018 was more of the same for Biadasz, starting 13 games and being an anchor for the Badgers.
In 2019, Biadasz played his final collegiate season, starting 14 games, winning the Rimington Trophy, being the first Wisconsin Badger to win the honor.
He would forgo his senior season and declare for the 2020 NFL Draft.
In 2020, the Dallas Cowboys selected Biadasz in the 4th round (146th overall), where he started four games as a rookie, dealing with injuries and a starting Joe Looney ahead of him.
In 2021, it was finally his chance to be the starter for the foreseeable future.
From 2021 to 2023, Biadasz started nearly every single game, missing only two games during this span.
He also earned a Pro Bowl for his efforts in 2022.
The Cowboys let Biadasz go after the 2023 season, where he signed with the Washington Commanders for 2024 and 2025, being an above-average starter for their team, showing that he is one of the league's better Centers.
Even with his strong play at a position that is hard to find, the Commanders inexplicably released the veteran center, allowing him to hit the open market.
Chargers Tyler Biadasz, OL Wisconsin Going into 2026, the Los Angeles Chargers identified Biadasz as their Bradley Bozeman replacement, giving him a three-year, $30 million contract.
He is expected to be the starting Center to protect Justin Herbert and lead this OL to new heights.
