The Chargers have signed safety Andre Lott to a two-year contract. Lott originally entered the NFL in 2002 as a fifth-round draft choice (159th overall) of the Washington Redskins. He played in all 16 games as a rookie and was fifth on the team with 13 special teams tackles. In 2003, Lott played in 11 games and had six stops on the specialty units. In 2004, Lott cracked the ’Skins starting lineup for three games, but suffered a season-ending pectoral injury against Green Bay on Oct. 31. He was placed on the “Reserve-Injured” list the following day. Last season, Lott suffered a knee injury during an offseason practice. He reached an injury settlement with Washington and was released before the season.
