Chargers to part with Benjamin
The Chargers are not expected to retain Travis Benjamin, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. The veteran wide receiver will be a free agent after an injury-filled season, his fourth with the team.
Benjamin, projected to be the Chargers’ No. 3 receiver, appeared in only five games last year, catching six passes for 30 yards.
The Chargers are expected to address receiver depth in the draft.
