The Chargers have applied the unrestricted free agent tender to running back J.K. Dobbins,Gavino Borquez of Chargers Wire rpeorts. This according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
If Dobbins signs with a new team before training camp, he will still count towards the compensatory formula. If he doesn't sign with a new team by training camp, the Bolts are the only team allowed to sign him for the rest of the season. Dobbins would make $3.428 million for 2025 on the one-year tender.
The Chiefs were the last team to use the tender, applying it to Melvin Ingram III and Justin Houston.
Signed last offseason, Dobbins' play exceeded his $1.6 million prove-it deal. He set a career-high in rushing yards (905) and tied his personal best in rushing touchdowns (9).
