COSTA MESA, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Chargers have released safety Jahleel Addae, the team announced Saturday.
"In his time here, nobody has worked harder, and exemplified what we want in a Charger more than Jahleel," general manager Tom Telesco said in a statement. "These decisions are never easy, and we will always be grateful for Jahleel's contributions both on the field and in our community."
Addae signed a four-year, $22 million contract two years ago and had $11.5 million in nonguaranteed compensation left on his deal. The Chargers will save $5.5 million in cash and $5 million against the 2019 salary cap by releasing Addae.
