Jon Runyan is expected to formally announce his candidacy for Congress in New Jersey's 3rd District within the next couple of weeks.
Runyan, who joined the Chargers for the final six weeks of the last season, hasn't officially announced his retirement from the NFL yet. But he's always had an eye on politics and is one of the more popular Eagles of this decade. We doubt we'll ever see him with pads on again.

Jon Runyan rotated with at right tackle Brandyn Dombrowski in Week 16.
Dombrowski remains the starter, but Runyan is getting work just in case he's called into duty. Once the playoffs hit, Runyan will be the third tackle. The Chargers will likely give all their front-line players significant rest against the Redskins Sunday.

OT Jon Runyan is expected to make his Chargers debut this week.
Runyan won't immediately step in for Brandyn Dombrowski as a starter. He'll be worked in for a couple series as he works himself back into game shape. It will be interesting to see how effective Runyan can be after being out of football for nearly a year.

Newly signed Chargers OT Jon Runyan plans to retire after the season.
Runyan will run for Congress in New Jersey's 3rd district in 2010. "I look forward to a successful end to my career on the field," he said, "and a spirited campaign against Congressman (John) Adler." He will run as a Republican.

Chargers signed OT Jon Runyan, formerly of the Eagles.
Brandyn Dombrowski will start at right tackle until Runyan shows he's ready to contribute in practice. Runyan started an amazing 192 straight games between 1997 and 2008, but turns 36 in three days and is coming off microfacture surgery. He's not likely to be an upgrade in pass protection.

Ex-Eagles OT Jon Runyan is reportedly on his way to San Diego to "try to work out a deal" with the Chargers.
The Chargers are desperate for a veteran presence at right tackle after losing Jeromey Clary to a serious ankle injury last week. Several teams have kicked the tires on the 36-year-old Runyan only to explore other options.

The Eagles reportedly have no plans to sign free agent OT Jon Runyan.
It's because RT Winston Justice was highly effective in the team's Week 1 blowout of Carolina, limiting the Panthers' rotation of LEs to just three solo tackles and no sacks. The Birds may have their right tackle of the future.

After working out for the Bills Friday, free agent OT Jon Runyan said he feels "great."
Runyan, 35, can't feel that great considering his age and the fact he's coming off microfracture surgery. He's worked out for the Chiefs, Bill and Eagles and surprisingly reported no swelling or pain in his knees. Philadelphia seems to be the best fit with Shawn Andrews' back flaring up and Winston Justice filling in for now.

Runyan says he is ready to go after microfracture surgery in January. He spent nine seasons with the Eagles and never missed a game.

Runyan reportedly worked out for the Chiefs yesterday, but his preference would be to stay in Philadelphia.

Free agent OT Jon Runyan (microfracture surgery) has been cleared for full contact.
Now Runyan needs to find a team. He has no workouts scheduled and his former team, the Eagles, said it's "unlikely" they'll bring Runyan back. At some point the 35-year-old Runyan will get a call, although it might take an injury somewhere to make it happen.

ESPN's Chris Mortensen does not expect free agent OT Jon Runyan to make it back to the Eagles.
This goes against a lot of speculation and Andy Reid may not be telling the truth. Big Red said he's happy with Winston Justice, who has been a bust so far in his career to say the least. With Shawn Andrews being as unreliable as ever, Runyan would make sense for the Eagles, even if Reid won't admit it.

Free agent OT Jon Runyan has been medically cleared to participate in an NFL camp after offseason microfracture surgery.
This will get the ball rolling on his market value. The Eagles are still a very good fit with Shawn Andrews battling chronic back problems. Runyan could also get looks from Washington, Green Bay, Buffalo, and San Francisco.

Free agent OT Jon Runyan still hasn't been permitted to run on his recontructed right knee.
Runyan is still hoping to get back in the league and says the Eagles remain his first choice. Considering how unreliable Shawn Andrews is and the fact the Winston Justice is running with the first team, the Birds could probably use Runyan. But it sounds like the 35-year-old is still a ways off from being ready to play.

Free agent OT Jon Runyan is reportedly on track for a late-July return.
Runyan's agent claims he's been in touch with "several teams." Clubs are likely waiting for the 35-year-old to be ready to pass a physical as he recovers from microfracture surgery. One potential suitor is the Vikings, who could use Runyan as competition for second-round pick Phil Loadholt.

Free agent Jon Runyan reiterated to SI.com's Ross Tucker that he wants to play football in 2009.
Tucker also confirms that Runyan is coming off microfracture knee surgery. "I love the competition, I love the game and know I could move on but don't want to," said Runyan, who is exactly four months removed from the operation. Runyan probably won't be able to pass a physical until training camp starts.
