| Wide receiver Ronald Curry credits new strength and conditioning coach Brad Roll with improving his physique. "I never took the weight room too seriously. I would do just enough," Curry tells the Sacramento Bee. "Coach Roll was really a blessing for me. He got me on my own little plan as far as upper body, lower body, and it's really helped me out. I can feel the difference in my legs, and when I go to block somebody, just me grabbing somebody, I can feel how much stronger I got." Curry plans to play this season at around 200 pounds, which is 10 pounds below his listed weight. |

| Cornerback Mike McKenzie estimates that his recovery from a torn ACL in his right knee is at 85 percent. "I don't want to do anything to jeopardize being ready for Week 1," he informs the New Orleans Times-Picayune. "At the same time, I do have to push it. So I'm looking forward to those preseason games being a real test." McKenzie tore the knee ligament in Week 16. |

| Running back Deuce McAllister continues to be heppy with his recovery from a torn ACL in his left knee and microfracture surgery in his right knee. "I'm proud and pleased with (my progress)," he tells the New Orleans Times-Picayune. "I don't know if there's really a 'next benchmark' to be met on my part. It's pretty much just getting out there and trying to make plays. That's what I'm looking forward to." McAllister practiced on a limited basis and did individual drills during the June OTAs. |

| Safety Terrence Kiel died late Saturday night when he was thrown from a car he was driving, the AP reports. The 27-year-old former Chargers player hit a wall in a San Diego neighborhood, and he died about an hour after the paramedics reached him. Friends had reportedly tried to stop Kiel from driving home from the party. Kiel was a second-round draft pick in 2003 and released in March of 2007. |
