LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Chargers signed safety Elijah Molden to a multiyear contract, the team announced Thursday.

The deal is a three-year, $18.75M contract with $13.5M guaranteed, Molden’s agents CJ Laboy and Doug Hendrickson told ESPN Adam Schefter.

Molden ranked second among Chargers defensive backs in tackles (72) and interceptions (three).
