Tony Jefferson becomes 8th former Raven to join Chargers after agreeing to 1-year deal

Tony Jefferson now joins a list of former Ravens to sign with Chargers that includes GM Joe Hortiz, OC Greg Roman, Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins, Hayden Hurst, Bradley Bozeman and Ben Mason.

Los Angeles is Baltimore West after Tony Jefferson became the 8th former Raven personnel to land a job with the Chargers.

Jefferson now joins a list of former Baltimore personnel, including general manager Joe Hortiz, offensive coordinator Greg Roman, Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins, Hayden Hurst, Bradley Bozeman, and Ben Mason.

Jefferson spent the 2020 season out of football, spent time with the 49ers in 2021, returned to Baltimore for four games in 2022, and finished with the Giants before retiring.

Jefferson was supposed to become a scout in the Ravens organization before changing his mind and working out for the Chargers.

Jefferson’s best season came in 2016, recording 96 tackles (13 for loss), two sacks, five passes defensed, two forced fumbles, and two fumble recoveries, earning a big money deal with Baltimore.

Jefferson matched that productivity in his first two seasons with the Ravens before injuries derailed his journey, limiting him to five games in 2019 before the Ravens released him in 2020.
