The Chargers have claimed 25-year old running back Marcus Mason off waivers from the Redskins.  Mason played in 10 games for the Redskins last season in which he carried the ball 32 times for 127 yards (4.0 ypc) and he also caught 6 passes for 58 yards (9.7 avg).  Mason has been a pre-season wonder the last few years before the Redskins gave him his first shot in games that count.  This is a perfect landing spot for Mason as the Chargers need a lot of help in the running game for 2010.
