Remaining Chargers free agents still on the open market

Here’s a full list of Chargers players that currently remain free agents.

It has been two weeks since the free agency period opened up, and the Chargers have been steady with their roster reconstruction. They added linebacker Eric Kendricks and re-signed a few of their own.

With that being said, several players that were on Los Angeles’ roster in 2022 are still available to sign.

Here’s a full list of Chargers players that currently remain free agents:

Chargers re-sign DT Damion Square

The Los Angeles Chargers are bringing back a familiar face.

The Chargers re-signed defensive tackle Damion Square on Monday, per his official Instagram account.

After choosing not to draft a nose tackle, the depth at the position behind Linval Joseph was nearly nonexistent. Square proved his worth with the Bolts to garner another contract.

Square has been a valuable rotational piece along the defensive line, playing at least 300 defensive snaps for four consecutive seasons.

In 2019, Square recorded 27 tackles (15 solo), a tackle for loss and two passes defended. Whether it’s against the run or pass, Square has made his presence known.

In six seasons with the Chargers, Square posted 96 tackles, 15 quarterback hits, nine tackles for loss and eight passes defensed.

Report: Chargers, RB Austin Ekeler agree to contract extension

The Los Angeles Chargers locked up the productive running back.

Running back Austin Ekeler is staying in Los Angeles.

Ekeler, who was set to be a restricted free agent later this month, agreed to terms on a four-year deal worth $24.5 million which includes $15 million guaranteed, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

More to come on Ekeler’s extension.
