Chargers sign new kicker amid several transactions

The Chargers will bring in Chase McLaughlin to hold down the kicking spot until Michael Badgley, who has missed this entire season thus far with a groin injury, can get back on the field.

Ty Long, the team’s punter, filled in admirably for Badgley in his absence, but the team has decided to sign another kicker, as was suggested the team should do a couple of weeks ago.

Long has made seven of the nine field goals he’s attempted for the Chargers this season and has also made all nine of his extra-point attempts.
