Chargers' Denzel Perryman: Has charges dropped
Perryman, who was arrested Friday on a felony weapons charge, had the charge dropped Monday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Popper also relayed a statement from Ron Butler, Perryman's agent: "The charges have been dismissed, and we're grateful the matter has been resolved." The inside linebacker finished with 55 tackles (39 solo) across 11 regular-season games for the Chargers in 2024, landing a one-year, $3.6 million deal to return to the team in March.

Chargers' Denzel Perryman: Back at practice
Perryman (elbow) participated in Wednesday's practice, Eric Smith of the Chargers' official site reports.
Perryman tore at least one ligament in his left elbow during the Chargers' 2024 wild-card loss, but he now appears to have moved past the issue. The veteran from Miami was one of the Chargers' top inside linebackers in 2024, recording 55 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, over 11 regular-season contests. Perryman signed a one-year, $3.6 deal to return to Los Angeles in March, so he's expected to remain one of the top inside linebackers in 2025.

Chargers' Denzel Perryman: Staying in Los Angeles
Perryman (elbow) is in line to sign with the Chargers on a one-year, $3.6 million contract, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Perryman played a big role in the Chargers' defense in 2024 -- especially against the run -- and he finished the regular season with 55 tackles (39 solo), including 1.0 sacks, across 11 games. He tore a ligament in his elbow during the Chargers' AFC wild-card loss to the Texans in January, but the veteran linebacker is expected to be fully healthy for the start of the 2025 season.

Chargers' Denzel Perryman: Tears ligament in elbow
Perryman told reporters Sunday that he tore at least one ligament in his left elbow during Saturday's 32-12 AFC wild-card loss to the Texans, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Perryman suffered the injury early in the first quarter of Saturday's game, but he wasn't ruled out until midway through the fourth quarter. He was seen with a large brace on his left elbow Sunday, and it remains to be seen whether he'll need to undergo surgery. Perryman signed a one-year deal with the Chargers in March of 2024 and will enter the offseason as a free agent for a second straight year. He finished the 2024 regular season with 55 tackles (39 solo), including 1.0 sacks, across 11 games.

Chargers' Denzel Perryman: Clear to play in wild-card contest
Perryman (groin) is active for Saturday's wild-card matchup versus the Texans.
Perryman missed the final two games of the regular season due to a lingering groin issue, but he'll be available for Los Angeles' first playoff contest. The veteran linebacker will likely reclaim his starting role, though he wasn't an every-down player even prior to the injury, as he shared the workload with Junior Colson and Troy Dye. That could be the case again Saturday, especially since Perryman has logged just 11 defensive snaps since Week 11.
