Chargers finalize roster

The Chargeres finalized their roster with the below listed cuts: I felt they should have kept Antwan Applewhite, both for how good he showed in camp and the preseason games. Plus with Merriman injured keeping Applewhite would even make more sense. I expect Applewhite and Marcus Thomas will make the Practice Squad.
