The Chargers have signed cornerback Simeon Castille from the practice squad and waived cornerback Dante Hughes.

Castille (6-0, 195) is a second-year player from Alabama who will wear #26. He’s been on the practice squad since the start of the season and played in eight games with the Cincinnati Bengals in 2008. Castille is eligible to play in tomorrow’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Hughes signed with the Chargers on Tuesday after linebacker Antwan Applewhite went on “Reserve-Injured” with a hamstring injury.
