Holt, James (LB)
The San Diego Chargers have signed rookie linebacker Holt from the practice squad to fill the roster spot created when wide receiver Chris Chambers was released.
Holt originally joined the Chargers in May as a free agent. He was released at the conclusion of training camp and added to the practice squad. The Chargers need a linebacker because Tim Dobbins is expected to be out for two weeks after sustaining a knee injury in Sunday's 24-16 win over Oakland.

Dobbins, Tim (LB)
Dobbins sustained a knee injury in the second quarter of Sunday's game against Oakland and was taken to the locker room on a cart. He was hurt on second-and-6 from the San Diego 9, when Justin Fargas gained 5 yards. Fargas scored two plays later to tie the game at 7.
The Chargers said Dobbins' return was questionable. He was starting in place of Kevin Burnett, who missed his second straight game with an ankle injury.
