Jyles Tucker Released

In a move that should shock, well, no one, the San Diego Chargers have released Outside Linebacker Jyles Tucker.

After joining the team as an undrafted free agent out of Wake Forest in 2007, he made an impact during his rookie season. In the Week 17 game against the Oakland Raiders during that 2007 season, he was awarded the AFC Defensive player of the week. The team awarded him a 5-year contract worth $14 million in 2008.

Since then, he's been very quiet, when he's healthy enough to get on the field. He spent much of the 2009 season on the bench with an ankle injury. He spent most of the 2010 season on Injured-Reserve after tearing his pectoral muscle in the week 4 game against the Arizona Cardinals.

He was due $1 million in 2011.

One of the bright spots on his mixed career was his ability to destroy the Raiders. Looks like the Chargers will need to find someone to replace the Raider kryptonite known as Jyles Tucker.

He seems like a good player if he could stay healthy. I like it, especially if it was for cheap.

      Dream big: Imagine this future and tell me how you feel

      Just because we made a bad trade and selected the wrong QB does not mean we should double triple and quadruple down on a QB who is currently for this season 35th in passing yards 36th in touchdowns 39th in yards per attempt 40th in yards per game 39th in completion % and 42nd in passer rating. In this league you need not only a really good QB but it pays dividends to have a good backup plan in place. Why would you or anyone else be against us having a real legitimate insurance policy this go around instead of a washed up Andy Dalton and an afterthought like Jack Plummer? It sounds to me like some of you are only invested in catering to one player because you want to salvage the trade instead of doing what is best for the whole team long term. Bryce Young does not carry that level of sway. That's all there is to it.

      Bryce Young what a crazy statement

      I honestly do wonder how much of an impact his breakup with his GF had on thing First two weeks like you said he looked depressed. Gets a month to get over it and comes back a completely new person

      Man whether it's the Panthers or the Hornets it's crazy how many foolish talking heads there are in the local media. I just unsubscribed from locked on Hornets. Doug Branson with his cheesy mustache is an absolute clown especially when his partner isn't on. Talking about trading LaMelo because he can't win basketball games by himself with no semblance whatsoever of a legitimate Center. These YouTube personalities will say anything for a damn click.
