Free-agent tight end Gerald Everett has agreed to a contract with the Los Angeles Chargers, his agency announced Sunday.
SportsTrust Advisors made the announcement on Instagram but did not disclose terms.
Chargers tight end Jared Cook, 34, is a free agent, and the 27-year-old Everett gives the team a chance to get younger at the position and maintain the same level of production.
In his first season as a No. 1 tight end, Everett caught 48 passes for 478 yards and four touchdowns with the Seattle Seahawks -- all career highs -- in 2021.
