Chargers sign former first-round pick to practice squad

The Chargers signed safety Terrell Edmunds to the practice squad on Thursday.

In correspondence, Los Angeles released Emany Johnson from the practice squad.

Edmunds, 27, was a first-round selection by the Steelers in the 2018 NFL Draft, where he started 75 games. He notched 410 total tackles, 26 passes defensed, five interceptions, and five sacks during the five years in Pittsburgh.

Edmunds then signed with the Eagles in 2023 before being traded to the Titans during the season. This past year, he signed with the Jaguars and eventually joined his former team, the Steelers, on their practice squad.

Pittsburgh released Edmunds on Nov. 9.

Edmunds provides depth at a safety position that lost Elijah Molden and Marcus Maye, who were placed in injured reserve. Alohi Gilman could be activated off IR, but they still need bodies alongside him and Derwin James.

While he will start on the practice squad, Edmunds could be elevated to the active roster.
