The Chargers made a few roster moves on Monday.

The Chargers made a few roster moves on Monday.

Los Angeles signed defensive tackle Christopher Hinton to the active roster.

L.A. also announced they signed center Cameron Tom and defensive back Mark Webb Jr. to the practice squad.

Hinton appeared in four games for the Chargers in 2022, recording three tackles and a quarterback hit. He was waived last week to make room for cornerback Essang Bassey.

Tom has spent time with the Saints and Dolphins and has appeared in 13 games, with one start for New Orleans in 2017. He recently was on the Eagles’ practice squad in 2022.

Webb, Los Angeles’ seventh-round pick, appeared in seven games before landing on the injured reserve in 2021. He has been a mainstay on the Chargers’ practice squad since then.

Players recently cut that could interest the Detroit Lions

Here are some recently cut players that stand out as guys Lions GM Brad Holmes could go after.

Roster cutdowns can be an opportunity to build up a roster. Players who didn’t make one team, for whatever reason, might wind up being a good fit for another. For the Detroit Lions and GM Brad Holmes, it’s an opportunity to potentially churn the bottom of the roster even after the initial 53-man unit has been established.

Waiver claims right after the roster cutdown aren’t terribly common. but they do happen. This is how the Lions added Romeo Okwara to the roster back in 2017. There is now an opportunity for another player or two to join Okwara as a roster cutdown waiver claim who can become a long-term Lion.

The Lions are 18th in the waiver wire order by virtue of their 9-8 finish in 2022; the waiver wire order is based on the final result of the prior season at this point. Remember: players claimed on waivers go directly to the 53-man active roster, which means someone who initially made the Lions would have to be removed from the active roster — be it a cut or a move to the injured reserve.

While I don’t expect the Lions to be very active on the waiver claim front, there are a few players who got cut by other teams that could fit roles in Detroit. Here are some that stand out as players GM Brad Holmes could go after.
