The Chargers on Monday officially announced the signings of former Carolina Panthers center Bradley Bozeman and ex-Minnesota Vikings linebacker Troy Dye.
Bozeman spent the past two seasons with the Panthers after spending four years with the Baltimore Ravens. Dye has played the past four seasons with the Vikings.
Bozeman gives the Chargers a replacement for Corey Linsley, who is retiring after 10 seasons in the NFL because of a heart ailment discovered early in the 2023 season. Will Clapp, who replaced Linsley for the final 14 games last season, is an unrestricted free agent.
Dye, a Norco High School standout who was teammates with Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert at the University of Oregon, helps to fill a void created by the departures of Eric Kendricks, who was released, and Kenneth Murray Jr., who signed with the Tennessee Titans.
Bozeman and Dye signed one-year contracts, per reports.
In addition, the Chargers agreed with veteran linebacker Denzel Perryman on a one-year, $3Â million deal, according to ESPN. Perryman began his career with the Chargers in 2015 and also has played with the Las Vegas Raiders and, this past season, with the Houston Texans.
