Cast your verdict:
Chargers add depth at running back with an undrafted free agent signing. Limited media coverage suggests this is a routine roster move, not a marquee acquisition. Desrosiers appears to be a camp body competing for practice squad consideration. Fans view this as typical offseason roster shuffling without impact on playoff aspirations. If he makes the roster, he'll likely serve as a developmental backup or special teams contributor.
Greg Desrosiers earns a C+ Contract Value Index (CVI) on this three-year, $3.1M deal with the Los Angeles Chargers — a fair-market signing that carries modest upside but virtually no downside at this price point. At roughly $1M AAV, this is the kind of low-cost roster construction that makes sense at running back, a position where the league has aggressively compressed salaries for depth pieces over the past half-decade. Desrosiers profiles as a depth and special-teams contributor at this contract level — the CVI reflects a player who isn't expected to carry a significant offensive workload but can provide functional value within a rotational role. The three-year length is mildly aggressive for a signing of this tier, as locking in any depth back beyond two seasons introduces some roster flexibility risk if the Chargers want to reshape the position in future offseasons. That said, with guaranteed money unreported, the back end of this deal is almost certainly non-guaranteed, which means the Chargers retain practical control over the commitment and can move on without meaningful cap consequences if Desrosiers doesn't develop into more. With the regular season still over four months away, there's time for him to carve out a defined role in camp, but the CVI landing here reflects realistic expectations — serviceable depth at an efficient price, nothing more.
