The Los Angeles Chargers announced Thursday that they’ve promoted DE Anthony Lanier to their active roster on Thursday and waived DE Chris Landrum.
Lanier, 25, wound up signing on with the Redskins as an undrafted free agent out of Alabama A&M back in 2016. He was waived with an injury designation coming out of the preseason and he later reverted to the team’s injured reserve list.
Washington waived Lanier from injured reserve with an injury settlement and he eventually signed on to the Chargers’ practice squad last month.
In 2017, Lanie appeared in 11 games and recorded 14 tackles, five sacks, a forced fumble, a recovery and six pass defenses.
