What the Chargers are getting in Linval Joseph

The Chargers made their second signing of the legal tampering period when they agreed to a two-year, $17 million deal with former Vikings defensive tackle Linval Joseph.

Linval spent the first four years of his career with the New York Giants (2010-2013) before signing with the Minnesota Vikings prior to the 2014 season. After playing in just six games his rookie year in New York, Joseph has gone on to start every single game he’s played in since.

While with the Vikings he was voted to the pro bowl on two different occasions and made a name for himself as one of the most dominant run-stopping defensive tackles in the NFL.
