Adam Schefter of NFL Network is reporting that the Chargers have signed defensive lineman Luis Castillo to a five-year, $43.1 million contract extension that gives Castillo $18 million in guarantees. The contract locks Castillo up through the 2014 season.
The 24-year-old Castillo is a good player when healthy, so it’s no surprise that the Chargers would want to lock him down. But injuries are a concern, as he’s missed six games in each of the last two seasons.
