The San Diego Chargers surprised some in 2013 by making a late season run, winning four consecutive games to finish with a 9-7 record and sneak into the postseason, joining the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs as playoff participants from the AFC West.
The Chargers defeated the Cincinnati Bengals 27-10 in the first round before falling to the Denver Broncos 24-17 a week later.
Because of that success, it should come as no surprise the Chargers want to lock up some of their own free agents.
According to Ricky Henne of Chargers.com, they did just that on Saturday.
Darrell Stuckey has agreed to a new multi-year contract with the Chargers.
