According to ESPN’s Josina Anderson, the Chargers are “keeping Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie in mind” following the torn Achilles sustained by CB Jason Verrett last week.
Last month, Rodgers-Cromartie told a group of Giants reporters that he planned to wait until closer to the season to sign with a new team. Rodgers-Cromartie added that multiple teams have contacted him and expressed interest.
However, there haven’t been any updates about potential opportunities for him until now.
Rodgers-Cromartie visited with the Redskins earlier this offseason but left without an agreement in place.
Rodgers-Cromartie, 31, is a former first-round pick of the Cardinals back in 2008. He was in the final year of his five-year, $35 million contract that included $13.98 million guaranteed and set to make a base salary of $6.48 million for the 2018 season when the Giants released him in a move that freed up $6.5 million of available cap space.
In 2017, Rodgers-Cromartie appeared in 15 games and recorded 48 tackles, a half sack, no interceptions and pass defense. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 58 cornerback out of 120 qualifying players.
We have him featured in our Top 50 Available 2018 NFL Free Agents list.
