Back to practice squad
Tomlinson reverted to the Chargers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Tomlinson was elevated to the active roster for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers and served as the No. 3 tight end behind Stone Smartt and Tucker Fisk due to Will Dissly (shoulder) being sidelined. Tomlinson played in nine of the Chargers' 52 offensive snaps but did not show up in the box score. Tomlinson could be elevated for Thursday's game against the Broncos if Dissly is unable to progress in his recovery enough to play.

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.
