The Chargers have signed defensive back Elijah Molden to a multi-year contract extension, the team announced Thursday. The team did not disclose terms of the deal, but ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that it was a three-year, $18.75 million contract with $13.5 million guaranteed.
Molden, the son of former Chargers cornerback Alex Molden, was acquired in a trade with the Tennessee Titans prior to the 2024 season. Molden became a key piece of the Chargers’ secondary last season, starting 12 games after being acquired in August.
Molden played several spots in the secondary for a defense that led the NFL by allowing just 17.7 points per game. He registered career-highs in tackles (72), interceptions (three), pass breakups (seven) and fumble recoveries (two).
A third-round draft pick in the 2021 NFL Draft (100th overall), the former University of Washington standout has started 28 of the 48 games he has played in during his four seasons with the Titans and Chargers. He has 209 tackles (132 solo), 15 passes defensed, seven tackles for loss, two forced fumbles, four fumble recoveries and five interceptions, including a pair returned for touchdowns.
