Chargers Sign Tackle Jon Runyan

The Chargers have signed former Eagles All-Pro Jon Runyan to replace Jeromy Clary, who has been put on Injured Reserve. Runyan will not start immediately, but one has to figure that given the swiss-cheese quality of the Chargers O-Line this season he will see plenty of action. Runyan reported through the Chargers Twitter page that he has been working out five times a week and feels "great," so maybe he's not completely washed up. He probably is, though. Oh well.

Fun fact: In 2008 a poll of players conducted by ESPN stated that being blocked by Runyan on a screen pass is one of the scariest experiences for NFL corners and linebackers. Somewhere, Darren Sproles is smiling.
