Former Clemson, Oregon State and Florida State quarterback DJ Uiagalelei, Oregon star Matayo Uiagalelei's brother, won a spot on the Los Angeles Chargers' practice squad as the No. 3 quarterback behind Pro Duck Justin Herbert.
In their first two seasons practice squad players make a fixed salary of $13,000 per week while veterans and their agents can negotiate more, up to $25,850. They are paid weekly, and receive a prorated NFL minimum if activated to the 53-man roster, $840,000 annually.
Practice squad members practice with the team and attend meetings but don't suit up for games unless activated.
