There’s one thing apparent in this year’s NFL free agency: there’s a lot of competition for selecting your next safety. The Los Angeles Chargers released safety Jahleel Addae on Saturday. The release is being reported as a cap casualty.
But don’t get this twisted. Addae isn’t elite talent. He’s not an awful solution to the position, but he did struggle often in that Chargers defense. At the very least, he’s not on the Craig Dahl levels where he’d only fill in for special teams purposes and provide held breath when hitting the field.
