SAN DIEGO (AP)—The LaDainian Tomlinson saga ended happily for both sides.
After two months of uncertainty about his future, L.T. remains the face of the San Diego Chargers. The star running back agreed to a renegotiated deal that gives the team salary cap relief, the Chargers confirmed Tuesday night.
Financial terms weren’t immediately available for the three-year contract for Tomlinson, the 2006 NFL MVP.
“I love San Diego and being a part of this team with my teammates,” Tomlinson said in a statement released by the team. “My No. 1 priority was to stay here in San Diego. I truly believe this is the place that gives me the best chance to be successful and win a championship. I want to finish the job we started when I got here eight years ago. My heart has always been in San Diego. I couldn’t imagine putting on another uniform.”
A news conference was scheduled for Wednesday morning.
