The Chargers waived Nabers on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Nabers caught two passes for eight yards, including a two-point conversion, across three preseason appearances. The third-year fullback appeared in 26 contests over the last two seasons with the Chargers, so he'll be a likely candidate to return on a practice squad deal if he clears waivers.

Nabers (knee) was a full participant at Wednesday's practice, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nabers missed more than a week of practice, but it appears he'll be ready for the season opener against Washington. A fullback by trade, Nabers logged most of his snaps on special teams last year.

Nabers did not practice Wednesday for an undisclosed reason, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nabers suited up for all 16 games with the Chargers during his rookie season. He only got two caries for seven yards on the year, as he was primarily used on special teams and as a blocker on offense. When healthy, he projects for a similar role in 2021.

Nabers reverted to the Chargers' practice squad.

EDGE Analysis

Nabers played 15 total snaps in the season opener versus Cincinnati. The Chargers typically use a fullback in the backfield, and with Derek Watt in Pittsbrugh, Nabers will likely be promoted again this season.

Nabers was elevated to the Chargers' active roster Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The Chargers surprisingly opted to cut both fullbacks after training camp, but Nabers stuck around on the practice squad and will likely suit up Sunday versus the Bengals. The rookie out of Florida State will likely work mostly on special teams and in run-blocking roles.

Nabers was waived by the Chargers on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

In a surprising twist the Chargers will opt to carry zero fullbacks on their roster for the first time since 2015. Nabers had supposedly beaten out Bobby Holl for the starting role prior to Saturday, so it's possible the team could bring back Nabers as a practice squad candidate if they opt for more roster flexibility.

Nabers signed a one-year contract with the Chargers following the NFL Draft.

EDGE Analysis

The switch from college head coach Jimbo Fisher to Willie Taggart likely helped Nabers secure an NFL future, as the talented athlete transitioned to tight end once the new regime began at Florida State. In two seasons at tight end, Nabers caught 18 passes for 267 yards and two touchdowns, but it seems likely the Chargers will ask him to play fullback in an effort to find a replacement for Derek Watt, who signed with the Steelers this offseason.
