According to Jim Wyattย of the Tennessean, the San Diego Chargers have signed veteran WR Lavelle Hawkins.
The 27-year old receiver spent the majority of his career with the Tennesee Titans. Theย San Francisco 49ers brought him in for training camp, but numerous mental mistakes were likely his undoing with the team.
The deal could imply that the Chargers do not expect Malcom Floyd to return from his neck injury any time soon. Adding Hawkins figures to be depth signing, as he’s likely to play behind Keenan Allen and Eddie Royal and may not even see the field at any point.
