Chargers re-signed S Tony Jefferson to a one-year, $2 million contract.

18 March 2026

Jefferson retired in 2023, with most of his best seasons coming under John Harbaugh in Baltimore. He came out of retirement to play for Jim Harbaugh in LA two seasons ago and didn’t miss a beat. He appeared in 13 games with eight starts last year and also started the team’s lone postseason contest. Jefferson broke up seven passes, stole four interceptions, and logged a combined 57 tackles. A $2 million contract suggests a minor role for him this season, but he has proven to be a valuable depth option for the perennially-injured Chargers.
