Perryman's second stint with the Chargers ended much like his first run, as the veteran linebacker missed parts of eight games throughout the season and then tore a ligament in his elbow during the playoffs. The 32-year-old is expected to be a rotational inside backer behind the young duo of Daiyan Henley and Junior Colson. Read Past Outlooks

Perryman spent the first six seasons of his career with the Chargers before bouncing between the Raiders and Texans over the ensuing three seasons with varying degrees of success. As had been the case during his previous time with the Bolts, the veteran was oft injured ultimately missing 12 games over the past three seasons. With little depth behind rookie third-round pick Junior Colson, Perryman's second stint with the Chargers will be pivotal in keeping a ragtag run defense afloat.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Reunion in LA?
Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports Saturday that the Chargers are in discussion with Perryman on a reunion.
ANALYSIS
After playing with the Chargers for the first six years of his NFL career, Perryman suited up for the Raiders in 2021 and posted a career-best 154 tackles over 15 games. His numbers dipped in 2022 and he spent last season with the Texans, for whom he posted 76 tackles, including 0.5 sacks. Perryman would add veteran experience to the Chargers' linebacker corps and would figure to start alongside Nick Niemann.
