SYRACUSE, N.Y. – The Los Angeles Chargers have signed former Syracuse offensive tackle Jamar McGloster to their practice squad yesterday. The move came after Los Angeles waived defensive tackle Steven Richardson, leaving an opening on the practice squad for McGloster who worked out for the Bolts in mid-September.
Â
McGloster entered the NFL earlier this year as an undrafted rookie free agent with the San Francisco 49ers. After being waived by San Francisco he joined the Detroit Lions, suiting up for two preseason games. He was released by the Lions in August.
Â
McGloster appeared in 30 games for the Orange from 2014-17. He started 24 games in a row at right tackle his last two seasons.
Â
As a senior last fall, McGloster was second on the team with 1,034 snaps played. He tallied 12 knockdown blocks and aided a Syracuse offense that ranked third in the ACC in total offense (456.3 ypg) and second in passing (294.8 ypg). Following the season, McGloster earned an invitation to the 2018 East-West Shrine Game. Â
Â
The Chargers are 2-2 on the season and host the Raiders this Sunday at the StubHub Center.
