Joe Mays to Chargers: Latest Contract Details, Comments and Reaction

With injuries running rampant through their linebacking corps, the San Diego Chargers agreed to terms with veteran Joe Mays on Monday, according to ESPN's Adam Caplan (h/t Michael Gehlken of the San Diego Union-Tribune).

Starting linebacker Manti Te'o is nursing an ankle injury he picked up during Week 5 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, while his backup, rookie Denzel Perryman, suffered a bicep injury against the Oakland Raiders on Sunday.

That pair of injuries left the Chargers short at inside linebacker and looking for another option at the position.
