Former Detroit Lions offensive lineman Storm Norton has landed a new contract with the Los Angeles Chargers. Norton agreed to terms on Friday, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.
Norton spent most of the 2017 season with the Lions after signing with Detroit as an undrafted free agent from Toledo. He did not make the final cut but spent his rookie season on the team’s practice squad and was briefly on the active roster.
He found a home in the XFL, where Norton wound up having the top offensive tackle grade of any player while thriving at left tackle for the Los Angeles Wildcats. The XFL officially ceased operations just hours before the reports of Norton’s signing.
