Cornerback Chris Carr has signed a one-year contract with the San Diego Chargers.

He'll be added to the active roster on Wednesday, when the Chargers will have to make a corresponding move.

Carr has played with the Oakland Raiders, Tennessee Titans and Baltimore Ravens. He was in training camp with the Minnesota Vikings before being released prior to the regular season.

Carr joins the Chargers as they prepare to face former teammate Drew Brees and the winless Saints on Sunday night in New Orleans. Brees threw for 446 yards and three touchdowns in a 28-27 loss at Green Bay on Sunday.
