Chargers sign TE Stephen Anderson to their practice squad, EDGE Justin Hollins to active roster

The Chargers announced that they signed EDGE Justin Hollins to the active roster, as well as tight end Stephen Anderson to their practice squad, and I can’t think of a practice squad signing more deserving of praise.

Anderson was signed to the Chargers’ practice squad in 2019, only ascending to the active roster for one game but was signed to a futures contract on December 30th, 2019. He returned in 2020 and appeared in all 16 games, logging a few starts but mainly filling a reserve tight end role and special teams contributor. In 2021, he played all 17 games in that same reserve/special teams role, but Anderson’s impact as a reliable depth piece can’t be understated.
