Tomlinson to Anchor Chargers Run Defense | Los Angeles Chargers News

The Chargers are beefing up their run defense by signing Dalvin Tomlinson to a one-year, $6.8M deal — a move aimed at adding stability and aggression up front. Though his stats last season were modest and his system didn’t fully showcase his talents, Tomlinson’s proven run-stopping ability with Cleveland makes him a solid fit. He’ll anchor the middle alongside Jamaree Caldwell and Teair Tart, especially in nickel packages when they pack the box. With rookie Nick Barrett joining him, the Chargers hope to unlock his potential as he enters his 10th NFL season — even if he’s not flashy, his experience could be the missing piece to elevate their run defense.
