Shawne Merriman has reiterated that he wants to remain with the Chargers. "I feel like I'm in the worst possible situation," the linebacker said Thursday. "I don't know if my team wants me there. So I'm going to have fun with the situation." Merriman's contract will expire at the end of the league year next month, but because 2010 will almost certainly be an uncapped season, he will be a restricted free agent and under San Diego's control.
