Old teammates and a player’s coach brought Kyler Fackrell to the Chargers

Kyler Fackrell has been a steady contributor as an edge rusher in both of his previous two stops before signing with the Bolts. The former third-round pick out of Utah State by the Packers spent four seasons in Green Bay before playing this past season with the Giants.

As a free agent, Fackrell knew he was going to land somewhere that needed him, but it just so happened that he ended up in Los Angeles with a couple of familiar faces in Corey Linsley, Jared Cook, and Bryan Bulaga. After spending his entire professional career in the midwest and upper east coast, a stint in sunny California probably sounded pretty good and made for a fairly easy decision.
