Tyler Conklin has left the New York Jets as a free agent. And in the process, the Jets have essentially switched out tight ends. Conklin has signed a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Chargers. His agent announced that on social media:

The Chargers added a new tight end, signing Tyler Conklin this past week. Conklin gives the offense a pass-catching tight end, something the offense has been needing. To get familiar with the newest member of the Bolts, here is a compilation of highlights.

That’s right in line with what the Chargers have done with other recent contracts at the position. The Chargers signed Hayden Hurst to a one-year deal worth $1.1 million last year and Will Dissly got a three-year deal worth $14 million that had an out built into it after just two seasons.
