Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Denzel Perryman was released from police custody on Monday, and the Los Angeles District Attorney decided not to move forward with a felony weapons charge, public records showed.

Perryman had been held since Friday after he was pulled over by police for vehicle code violations. He was headed to a gun range at the time, TMZ reported.

Of the five firearms in his vehicle, two were assault-style rifles that are illegal in California.

Although Perryman was scheduled to appear at Inglewood Court on Tuesday, he is free to go as the DA declined to file charges in the case. His arrest will be considered a detention on his record as a result.

Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh told reporters he visited Perryman in jail on Sunday.

“Love Denzel,” Harbaugh said Monday. “He’s always done right. He’s never been in trouble. Got a beautiful family, and we’ll let the due process play out.”

Perryman, 32, is entering the second season of his second stint with the Chargers. He registered 55 tackles and one sack in 11 starts for the Chargers in 2024, missing six games with a groin injury.

Perryman signed a one-year, $2.655 million contract with the Chargers for the 2025 season.
