The Los Angeles Chargers selected Notre Dame football OT Joe Alt with the No. 5 pick in the 2024 NFL draft. It may not have been a sexy pick, but it was a good one for the health of quarterback Justin Herbert.
Joe Alt wasted zero time going viral as he was shown at home with his family awaiting to hear his name.
The big moment was a bit much for his girlfriend as cameras caught her extremely uncomfortable reaction.

Joe Alt is the son of former Kansas City Chiefs LT John Alt. He was a three-star TE out of high school, but he made quick work to move into the starting lineup midway through his freshman year and quickly developed into a dominant force on the left side.
Joe Alt is a colossal human being, and he comes in at 6-foot-9 and weighs in at 321 pounds.

Justin Herbert has gotten sacked 130 times in his career. The team lost him in December last year to a fractured finger due to the punishment he was taking.
The Los Angeles Chargers selecting former Notre Dame star offensive tackle Joe Alt in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft has to put a smile on Herbert’s face.
