The Chargers constructed their initial 53-man roster on Tuesday.
Let’s take a look at how social media reacted to it:

Chargers didn’t give Tony Jefferson a spot on their 53-man roster, he took it.
After un-retiring, this man amassed 14 tackles, 1 sack, 1 TFL, 1 FF, 2 PDs and 2 INT last week against the Cowboys.
Chargers had no other choice.
Congrats, @Tljefferson23 pic.twitter.com/CIAt2lyNzV

Making a team in @NFL is hard to do. Want to congratulate everyone that did so today. You are the less then 1 percent. On top of that, my brother @Tljefferson23 made the squad with the @chargers . You are a LEGEND!! Love you!!! "My DAWG is BACK"

Had the #Chargers keeping the 7 WR’s on my 53 prediction because I believed both players (Fehoko and Rice) earned the right to be here. Glad Hortiz and Harbaugh made the right decision there.

11 years after going undrafted, Tony Jefferson comes out of the Ravens scouting department to make the Chargers 53-man roster. 3rd round grade in #BigGreenNotebook📗in 2013 & @Tljefferson23 is still playing at a high level at age 32 https://t.co/JdnUDOpzYG

Best comebacks of all-time:
1) Michael Jordan
2) Michael Phelps
3) Tony Jefferson https://t.co/j93ftwEsuj— Kyle Odegard (@Kyle_Odegard) August 27, 2024
Really happy for Tony Jefferson. Grew up a Chargers fan. He’ll be a HUGE asset to the DB group as an experienced vet as well as to the young guys and a leader too. Remember he’s very familiar with this defense too. What a pickup. 🙏👍👍👍👍 pic.twitter.com/98GpaboYAg
