The Chargers have had to sign far too many injury replacements this year, and they found their latest one inside the division.
According to Michael Gehlken of the San Diego Union-Tribune, the Chargers have signed linebacker Korey Toomer, formerly of the Raiders practice squad.
He’ll fill the roster spot vacated when Manti Te’o suffered a torn Achilles last week, making him the latest high-end talent the Chargers have lost this year after Keenan Allen and Danny Woodhead, among others.
Toomer was a fifth-round pick of the Seahawks in 2012, and has also played for the Cowboys and Rams. He has appeared in 18 career games, 10 last year with the Raiders.
