SAN DIEGO (AP) -The San Diego Chargers claimed quarterback Casey Bramlet off waivers from the Miami Dolphins on Friday.

Bramlet is the fourth quarterback on the roster, joining Philip Rivers, Billy Volek and Charlie Whitehurst.

San Diego is Bramlet's fifth NFL team.

After being waived by Washington at the end of training camp last summer, Bramlet was signed to Atlanta's practice squad and then spent two weeks as the club's third quarterback. He was waived on Sept. 19 and joined the Dolphins' practice squad. He was elevated to the active roster and served as Miami's third quarterback for the final two weeks of the season.

He was a seventh-round draft pick by Cincinnati in 2004. He backed up Jon Kitna and Carson Palmer during his rookie season and then spent spring 2005 with the Hamburg Sea Devils of NFL Europe.

Bramlet was teammates at Wyoming with Chargers wide receiver Malcom Floyd.
