Chargers' Tenny Palepoi: Re-signs with Chargers

Palepoi (suspension) signed a one-year deal Monday to remain with the Chargers.

Analysis:

Palepoi provides value as a reserve defensive lineman for the Chargers, who credited him with nine quarterback hits last season, marking the third-most on the team. After violating the league's performance-enhancing drug policy, however, Palepoi missed San Diego's final three games last year and will be required to sit out Week 1 of this year. Once eligible to return, Palepoi figures to return to his usual depth role.
