The Chargers made a few roster moves on Tuesday.
Los Angeles released kicker Chase McLaughlin. To fill the vacated spot, they are promoting cornerback Tevaughn Campbell to the active roster. The team also added offensive tackle Tyree St. Louis to the practice squad.
The releasing of McLaughlin means that Michael Badgley is the only kicker on the active roster, indicating that he will make his season debut this weekend after missing the first eight weeks with a groin injury.
Below is the official team release:
