Chargers agree to extension with defensive back Deane Leonard

The Chargers secured six players with contract extensions and signed three free agents to strengthen key positions including offensive line and special teams.

  • On Tuesday, the Chargers agreed to a one-season, $2 million extension with Deane Leonard, a key special teams player, before he hit the unrestricted free agent market.
  • The free-agent signing period opens Wednesday at 1 p.m. , and teams could only negotiate with other clubs starting Monday during the legal tampering period.
  • Adding depth, the Chargers signed Alec Ingold for two seasons and extended Trevor Penning for one year, while Charlie Kolar agreed to a three-year contract with $10 million guaranteed.
  • As of Tuesday, the Chargers had given six of their own players contract extensions, including Khalil Mack's one-year, $18 million deal, while retaining exclusive-rights players Jaret Patterson, Kendall Williamson, and leading rusher Kimani Vidal.
  • The Chargers also agreed to terms with Cole Strange, who will likely replace right guard Mekhi Becton after Becton's release last week, on a two-season, $13 million deal.
