According to the University of Buffalo, running back Branden Oliver is en route to San Diego and will reportedly sign a two-year deal, joining the team.

The Chargers have yet to confirm this report.

However, with first round draft pick cornerback Jason Verrett still unsigned, the Chargers have a vacant spot on the team’s 90-man roster.

Oliver would give San Diego nine running backs in the fold. Adding quality depth at running back, with how much Mike McCoy leans on the running game, was a point of emphasis this offseason for general manager Tom Telesco.

Oliver will join tailbacks Ryan Mathews, Donald Brown, Danny Woodhead, Marion Grice, Kerwynn Williams and D.J. Adams on San Diego’s roster

At 5-8 and 208 pounds, Oliver ran for 1,535 and 15 touchdowns his final season at Buffalo. He also caught 25 passes for 173 yards and a score.
