Chargers show more faith in Eddie Royal
Eddie Royal - WR - San Diego Chargers
Dec. 30, 2012 - 8:30 PM ET

Eddie Royal caught four passes for 61 yards in the Chargers' Week 17 win over the Raiders.

The Chargers stuck with Royal to the bitter end, insisting on lining him up outside opposite Danario Alexander. Unfortunately, the four catches and 61 yards in this meaningless game were both season-highs. Expect the next Chargers' coach to correctly identify Royal as a situational slot receiver, not a featured player.
