With injuries running rampant through their linebacking corps, the San Diego Chargers agreed to terms with veteran Joe Mays on Monday, according to ESPN's Adam Caplan (h/t Michael Gehlken of the San Diego Union-Tribune).
Starting linebacker Manti Te'o is nursing an ankle injury he picked up during Week 5 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, while his backup, rookie Denzel Perryman, suffered a bicep injury against the Oakland Raiders on Sunday.
That pair of injuries left the Chargers short at inside linebacker and looking for another option at the position.
