Posted in A.J. Smith was quoted in the Union Tribune as saying the Merriman situation will play out before they address any further questions:
Asked specifically whether Shawne Merriman would be here through the 2009 season, Chargers GM A.J. Smith neither answered the question nor denied the possibility Merriman wouldn’t. “I’ve already addressed the Shawne Merriman situation,” Smith said. “I’m sure when the legal process runs its course, Shawne will update you. As far as his future with the Chargers, which appears to be an ongoing debate, we will let you know right away if his status should change.”
