The San Diego Chargers announced the signing of DT Ricardo Mathews on Monday.
San Diego reportedly had some interest in signing veteran DT Kevin Vickerson, but it appears as though they preferred to go withย Mathews.
Mathews, 27, spent the previous four years with the Indianapolis Colts, appearing in all 32 games in the 2012-2013 seasons, but only making six starts. He later signed a one-year contract with the Texans, but only lasted a few months before he was released.
Pro Football Focusย ranked Mathews as the No. 42 defensive end in aย 3-4 system out of 45 qualifying players.
