Chargers Officially Waive Rookie Linebacker

The Los Angeles Chargers have officially waived a rookie linebacker.

The Los Angeles Chargers have officially waived outside linebacker Savion Jackson, the team announced Tuesday. The move came four days before the Chargers' first preseason game against the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday, the team's 2024 preseason opener.Jackson went undrafted out of North Carolina State and signed with the Chargers following the 2024 NFL Draft. He was facing an uphill battle to land a spot on the roster, and the team decided to waive the young linebacker.

Before going to college at N.C. State, Jackson was a local star at Clayton, North Carolina. He committed to N.C. State in 2018. The Chargers already have a stacked linebacker/edge rusher room, with former Defensive Player of the Year Khalil Mack, Pro Bowler Joey Bosa, promising second-year edge Tuli Tuipulotu, and free agent signing Bud Dupree highlighting the group.
