SAN DIEGO (AP) — The San Diego Chargers have waived kicker Nate Kaeding after he passed a physical.
Kaeding was placed on injured reserve on Oct. 22 with a groin injury so that the team could sign wide receiver Danario Alexander. The Chargers said then that they’d release Kaeding when he was healthy.
Kaeding was hurt in practice on Sept. 28, two days before a game at Kansas City. The Chargers signed Nick Novak that day.
If Kaeding isn’t claimed on waivers, the Chargers will owe him $1.1 million in termination pay.
