Sorry, must have misread your sentence - It sounded like the safeties included JG. Thanks for the update!

I’m a charger fan so I’m just excited to finally have our safeties for the first time I had to include it!

The Los Angeles Chargers activated S Derwin James and S Adrian Phillips from reserve/injured; designated for return, the organization announced on Saturday. The Bolts also promoted WR Jalen Guyton to the active roster. In corresponding moves, DT T.Y. McGill and S Shalom Luani were waived while WR Geremy Davis was placed on injured reserve.

Guyton played two seasons at North Texas, amassing 1,580 yards on 103 catches with 15 touchdowns. The Allen, Texas native hauled in 54 passes for 805 yards and six scores in 2018. After transferring from Trinity Valley Community College, Guyton recorded 775 yards on 49 receptions with nine touchdowns in 2017.

I believe this was his first career target in an actual game, but Jalen just dropped a very catchable deep route.  Would have been a 40-50 yard gain.

Well let's hope that doesn't set him back too far

2 targets. 0 receptions. Did register a tackle (presumably on special teams).

I was watching the game to see the first drop but sounds like he had another in the 4th quarter inspiring this tweet.  Chargers are pretty set with their 2 main receivers but there could be a spot on this roster for him to stick for next season.  Days like today probably don't help his case much unfortunately.

Poor Guyton dropped the bomb, got burned on a fake punt, then mishandled a reverse handoff. Look for him on the waiver wire tomorrow unfortunately. The second target was not a drop.

But is anyone really surprised?

Coach Lynn won’t put up with that.

so his alligator arms did not get fixed after leaving college. Not a good for long term success in NFL, or even short term staying power
