In need of a special team spark, the Chargers are signing wide receiver Andre Roberts, according to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport.
After lacking a consistently productive return specialist, Roberts provides a major boost for Los Angeles.
Roberts, 33, was released by the Texans on Monday.
Prior to being let go of, Roberts returned eight punts for 33 yards and 18 kicks for a total of 386 yards for Houston.
Roberts led the league with 1,174 kick return yards with the Jets in 2018, and he followed that up with two solid campaigns with the Bills, which included a league-leading 30.0 yards per return in 2020.
Roberts appeared in Pro Bowls in each of those years with New York and Buffalo.
Roberts has also played with the Cardinals, Washington, Lions, and Falcons.
