Let go by Bolts

The Chargers waived Nabers on Tuesday.

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 Charger, so he'll be a likely candidate to return on a practice squad deal if he clears waivers.

No limitations Wednesday

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

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.

Misses practice

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

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.

Demoted to practice squad

Nabers reverted to the Chargers' practice squad.

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.

Receives promotion ahead of opener

Nabers was elevated to the Chargers' active roster Saturday.

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.

Cut loose by Chargers

Nabers was waived by the Chargers on Saturday.

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.
