Chargers sign Eli Apple to practice squad after series of injuries at cornerback

The Los Angeles Chargers have signed Eli Apple to their practice squad after a wave of injuries at cornerback

OCTOBER 15, 2024 • Associated Press

Lands on Chargers' practice squad San Diego is signing Apple to a practice-squad deal, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Apple played for Miami last year, tallying 46 tackles (37 solo), including a half-sack, and one interception over 10 regular-season games. The veteran cornerback has also had stints with the Giants (twice), New Orleans (twice), Carolina and Cincinnati in his NFL career. Apple will begin his Chargers tenure on the practice squad, but he could be needed for game action as soon as Week 7 if Kristian Fulton (hamstring) and/or Deane Leonard (hamstring) -- both of whom were injured Sunday versus Denver -- are unable to suit up.

Heading to free agency Apple recorded 46 tackles (37 solo), 0.5 sacks, nine pass breakups and one interception across 10 regular-season appearances with the Dolphins in 2023.

Impact Apple started four games for Miami due to injuries ahead of him at cornerback, filling exactly the role the team expected of him while on a one-year deal. Heading into free agency, Apple no longer seems like a candidate for an actual starting role in the league, but he offers tangible value as an experienced depth option. The 28-year-old may not be one of the hottest names on the free agent market, but he should be able to resurface in at least a reserve role for the 2024 campaign.

No interceptions in 2022 Apple concluded the 2022 regular season with 49 tackles, eight pass breakups and no interceptions, forced fumbles or fumble recoveries across 15 appearances. He added 18 stops and...

Impact As Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic notes, Apple is one of five defensive starters for the Bengals who are ticketed for free agency this offseason. After having failed to produce a turnover in 2022, Apple is unlikely to be deployed as a starter if he returns to the team in 2023, given the late-season emergence of rookie Cam Taylor-Britt along with the fact that Chidobe Awuzie (knee) should be back from ACL surgery. Even if Awuzie has a setback and isn't on track to be ready for Week 1 of the 2023 season, the team might turn elsewhere to find another starter opposite Taylor-Britt.
