Jacob Hester injured his shoulder on the last day of minicamp and left practice in a sling (Gehlken). Hester doesn’t think that the injury will be anything serious and he should have plent of time to heal. The Chargers will have a month off until training camp starts up in July.

Currently, the only fullbacks on the roster are Hester, Leron McClain and rookie Mohamed Marah. Marah is unlikely to make the final roster. If this injury were to occur during the regular season, the Chargers would likely slide over TE Randy McMichael or Dante Rosario as the emergency fullback. It could be another reason that we keep four tight ends on the roster.

It has been a week of preparation for the draft. The Chargers picked up more depth on the front line with the signing on OT Mario Henderson and Brandyn Dombrowski signed his contract.

The team also brought back some key players on special teams. Mike Windt signed  his deal and he will be the long snapper for at least another season. Jacob Hester was the captain of the special teams and signed a one-year deal.

Other than those signings, it was a slow week for the team. It is all about preparation for the draft now. We better help out that defense.

Around the league, nothing earth shattering happened except for Jabar Gaffney going a little nutty on twitter. That was good for a little laugh.

Jacob Hester re-ups with the Bolts and will be wearing the blue and gold next season. He is our special teams ace and captain. He will be used in a backup role this season and could be used to block for LeRon McClain.

Hester was given an ultimatum to sign his contract before Monday. He visited out to Seattle to see his worth and decided that San Diego is the place that he wants to be.

Now, will we sign another veteran runningback?
