Late Monday evening, news broke on veteran linebacker Eric Kendricks signing with the Chargers via an instagram post where the former Vikings posted a picture of a UCLA Football practice field with the caption, “Back in LA .. Bolt up!”
About 12 hours after the fact, we now have the details regarding his contract.
Per NFL insider Ian Rapoport, the Chargers are signing Kendricks to a two-year, $13.25 million contract. The move fills a void on defense with a proven and productive veteran who just spent the 2022 season working within Ed Donatell’s 3-4 defense, meaning he’s at least got some grasp on the Chargers’ defense as Donatell is also part of the Vic Fangio coaching tree from his time in Denver.
