Chargers ‘Surge or Static?’: Odds defied and dreams realized

On Tuesday, the Chargers cut down to 53 players on their final rosters like the rest of the NFL. A day later, they claimed two more players and since those two go to the active roster, two more players were waived in the process.

Now that the dust has fully settled, I wanted to highlight the Chargers players that I think find themselves in a more positive light following final cuts as well as those who find themselves in an unfavorable position ahead of the regular season.

Let’s get into it.

Surge

DT Forrest Merrill

You might be asking why I included Merrill on the “Surge” section of this list despite him being waived by the team in favor of Eric Banks and Trey Marshall who were claimed off waivers yesterday.
