The Los Angeles Chargers have several key free agents this offseason and we intend to examine each decision the team will have to make here at Bolt Beat. Here, we look at reserve running back Branden Oliver.
Undrafted out of Buffalo in 2014, Oliver impressed enough during that summer to make the team. When Donald Brown went down during the season, he became the Chargers’ primary back and finished the season as the team’s leading rusher.
Still, the Chargers decided to use a first-round pick on a running back the following year, taking Melvin Gordon out of Wisconsin.
