Chargers sign DL Morgan Fox

The Chargers are adding more reinforcements on the defensive front.

According to agent David Kanter, Los Angeles is signing defensive lineman Morgan Fox.

Fox previously played with the Panthers, where he appeared in all 17 games, starting nine of them. He accounted for 34 tackles, two tackles for loss, seven quarterback hits, and 1.5 sacks.

Before his stint with Carolina, Fox had his best season under Brandon Staley with the Rams in 2020, playing nearly 40 percent of the defensive snaps and finishing with 27 tackles, 25 pressures, and six sacks.

For the Chargers, Fox will serve as an interior pass rusher who’s versatile enough to kick outside and play off the edge in almost any down-and-distance situation.
