Receives elevation for Week 15
The Chargers elevated Tomlinson from their practice squad to their active roster Saturday in advance of Sunday's battle versus the Buccaneers, Kris Rhim of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Tomlinson began the campaign on Los Angeles' active roster and caught two of four targets for nine yards through eight contests. The veteran tight end was cut in early November but quickly signed with the team's practice squad, and he'll get his first elevation Sunday. Tomlinson is needed as a depth option at tight end due to Will Dissly (shoulder) being ruled out against Tampa Bay.

Tomlinson inked a one-year deal with the Broncos this offseason after playing in Baltimore in 2021. The 30-year-old tight end appeared in all 17 games, but only managed to record one catch for seven yards. Tomlinson will likely operate primarily as a blocker in Denver, so the veteran shouldn't pose much of a threat to Albert Okwuegbunam or Greg Dulcich in the tight end ranks.
