• Jaret Patterson: Lands back on practice squad

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  The Chargers reverted Patterson to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. Patterson got his first elevation of the campaign for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs and played one snap on special teams. That was his first regular-season action since he suited up in three contests for the Commanders in 2022. With J.K. Dobbins (knee) on IR for at least two more games, Patterson could get additional elevations, though it's unlikely he'll see much action on offense.

• Chargers' Jaret Patterson: Elevated by Bolts for Week 14

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  The Chargers elevated Patterson from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday. Patterson signed with the Chargers' practice squad in early September after failing to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. It's his first elevation of the 2024 campaign, though he'll likely be restricted to a special teams role, if he plays, as the Chargers already have Gus Edwards, Kimani Vidal and Hassan Haskins in the backfield. Patterson last saw NFL regular-season action in 2022 with the Commanders, and across three games he turned 17 carries into 78 yards.

  Patterson signed with the Chargers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. Patterson was let go by the Bolts in late August after failing to make the team's initial 53-man roster, but he's now found a spot on the practice squad. The 24-year-old running back's last regular-season action came in 2022 with the Commanders, when he appeared in three games and recorded 78 rushing yards on 17 attempts.

• Chargers' Jaret Patterson: Pushing for No. 3 job

  08/14/2024 • By RotoWire

  Patterson is believed to be the leading candidate for the Chargers' No. 3 running back job, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports. According to Popper, Patterson has gotten the most reps with the first-team offense behind J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards while notably running ahead of Kimani Vidal, Isaiah Spiller and Elijah Dotson. Patterson was also the first running back to get into the Chargers' first preseason game this past Saturday against the Seahawks, finishing with seven carries for 38 yards. Patterson spent most of the 2023 season on Los Angeles' practice squad before a short stint back in Washington. He has 85 career carries for 344 yards and two touchdowns, with each of his 20 career appearances coming in a Washington uniform.

• Chargers' Jaret Patterson: Taking some first-team reps

  07/26/2024 • By RotoWire

  Patterson got a lot of first-team snaps during practice Thursday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports. With Gus Edwards (undisclosed) limited to individual drills and sixth-round pick Kimani Vidal working with the backups, J.K. Dobbins and Patterson seem to be getting most of the first-team RB snaps early in training camp. Patterson nonetheless seems more likely to find himself on the roster bubble than competing for a significant Week 1 role, considering he went undrafted back in 2021 and didn't make a regular-season appearance last year. He spent most of 2022 on the Commanders' practice squad and most of 2023 on the Chargers' practice squad.
