Los Angeles Chargers S Nasir Adderley (undisclosed) did not participate in practice Tuesday, June 11, because of his undisclosed injury. Head coach Anthony Lynn said the team is holding out Adderley as a precaution.
Footballguys View: A second-round pick out of Delaware in the 2019 NFL draft, Adderley gives the Chargers a great safety combination with 2018 first-round pick Derwin James. Adderley did injure his hamstring during his pro day but was participating in offseason workouts. Who knows what this issue is, but the Chargers are wisely being cautious.
