Chargers put center Tyler Biadasz on IR after he injured left knee in joint practice with 49ers

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP) — Los Angeles Chargers center Tyler Biadasz was placed on injured reserve after he injured his left knee in a joint practice with the San Francisco 49ers.

The Chargers signed wide receiver Gary Jennings on Sunday to fill the roster spot.

Biadasz went down after 49ers defensive tackle Sebastian Valdez fell into his leg during an 11-on-11 drill and was carted off the field.

He signed with the Chargers in March shortly after he was released by the Washington Commanders.

Biadasz has started 84 regular-season games and seven playoff games over his career with Washington and Dallas. The Cowboys drafted the former Wisconsin standout in the fourth round of the 2020 draft.

The Chargers wrap up their preseason on Thursday night against the Los Angeles Rams.
