Chargers agree to contract with English

Posted Jul 31, 2009

Chargers first-round draft pick Larry English agreed to terms on a five-year contract Friday afternoon and will join his teammates on the field Saturday.

English, the 16th overall pick in April’s draft, is the 13th first-round selection to agree to a contract.  The Chargers hope the 6-2, 255 outside linebacker makes an immediate impact as a rookie, particularly in passing situations.

With English in the fold, now only one Chargers draft pick remains unsigned – seventh-round wide receiver Demetrius Byrd, who continues to recover from an April automobile accident.
