Chairman of the Board — President
The Chargers have become one of the NFL’s most successful and respected franchises under the leadership of Chairman of the Board-President Dean Spanos.
Spanos has provided the direction, resources and environment to build and maintain consistent success. The Chargers
won 94 games (playoffs included) during the past nine seasons (2004-12), including five AFC West championships
(2004, 2006-09) and three playoff games. Only four teams
won more games during that span.
Most recently, Spanos has overseen one of the largest transition periods in franchise history. In January, he hired new
Tom Telesco and Mike McCoy to serve as the team’s new general manager and head coach, respectively, completing a transition from one of the oldest front offices in the NFL to the
youngest. Telesco (40), McCoy (40) and Chief Executive Officer A.G. Spanos (35) are the youngest such trio in the league.
The additions of Telesco and McCoy have brought new
energy and optimism to the organization and its fan base.
Spanos became President of the Chargers early in 1994,
the same year the team culminated its most memorable season in team history with an appearance in Super Bowl XXIX.
Spanos’ leadership is felt throughout the National Football
League as well as all Spanos corporate entities. As a member
of the Management Council Executive Committee (CEC), he
played an integral role in negotiating the NFL’s current labor
agreement prior to the 2011 season. He serves as chairman
of the NFL’s Business Ventures Committee, which has oversight regarding various league commercial activities, including
consumer products, sponsorship, events, marketing and new
business initiatives. He also serves on the League’s International and Legislative Committees.
In addition, as president of the A.G. Spanos Companies,
Dean and his brother, Michael, oversee all construction operations nationwide.
Spanos’ commitment to San Diego and the team is undeniable. He has dedicated a decade of hard work and millions of
dollars to develop a plan to give San Diegans a modern Super
Bowl-quality stadium and secure a long-term home for their
football team. The reason for this bond: Dean, his wife Susie,
and their two sons, A.G. and John, proudly have called San
Diego home for more than 28 years.
Spanos’ efforts to build a special relationship between the
team and its fans have helped the Chargers become one of
San Diego’s most popular and talked-about institutions.
These efforts were acknowledged in 2006 when the Chargers were named the League’s most fan-friendly team by
FansVoice.com. Nothing grabs the attention of San Diegans
like the Chargers, whose games have become the highlight of
weekends during the season. Television ratings of games are
unsurpassed while day-to-day news of the team dominates
local talk shows and newscasts.
TRADITION OF GIVING
Spanos has continued the long-standing tradition of community service and support that was established by his father
Alex Spanos and the Chargers.
Examples of the family’s commitment to San Diego and
the community are everywhere. When Dean and his family as
well as the entire Chargers community were shaken by the
sudden passing of former Chargers linebacker Junior Seau in
2012, he and his wife Susie hosted a “Celebration of Life” for
Seau in Qualcomm Stadium. The event was seen and heard
live by more than 150,000 San Diegans, making it possible
for a grieving community to come together, heal and pay tribute to one of San Diego’s native sons.
The Spanos family is recognized as one of pro football’s
most philanthropic families and one of Southern California’s
most active and caring contributors. Their financial and emotional support of youth sports and education in San Diego is
unmatched.
In 2010, the Association of Fundraising Professionals recognized Spanos and the Chargers as San Diego’s Outstanding
Philanthropic Corporation, one of the most prestigious
awards for community service.
“I’m fortunate to be in a position to help people and organizations that need and deserve our support. My family is
proud to be a part of the San Diego community,” Spanos said
upon receipt of the honor.
The Chargers Community Foundation continues to be a
leader in assisting schools, honoring volunteers, supporting
youth sports and aiding critical causes important to the community. The Foundation and the Spanos family have provided
more than $11 million to support a wide range of services
and resources for programs directly affecting youth and families in San Diego county.
The Foundation’s largest ongoing program, Chargers
Champions, was created in 1999 specifically to help San
Diego County’s schools and students. The program has provided nearly $5 million in direct assistance to local schools,
teachers and students.
The focus of Chargers Champions is to improve the fitness
levels of students in the county. It provides grants directly to
San Diego County schools for fitness, nutrition and athletic
programs on area campuses.
Although examples of Spanos’ largesse are too many to
count, a number of efforts stand out. In 2000 local studentathletes received a giant boost when the Spanos family and
Chargers Community Foundation supplied the initial funding
to organize the first-ever freshman football and girls volleyball programs in the 16 San Diego City high schools. This
major public-private partnership created more than 1,000
extracurricular opportunities for students.
Youth football in San Diego has known no greater champion than the Spanos family and the Chargers. Their support of
the California Interscholastic Federation’s (CIF) annual high
school football championship games allows the games to be
played in Qualcomm Stadium. The Alex Spanos All-Star Classic, the longest-running high school all-star football game in
California, is another example of their support. This devotion
to youth football led the national Pop Warner organization to
name the Chargers its 2007 NFL Team of the Year.
In 2007, when wildfires ravaged San Diego County for the
second time in five years, Spanos jumped to the forefront with
a $1 million donation to aid affected families and the recovery
effort. He made an identical $1 million contribution immediately following the wildfires that hit the community in 2003.
Spanos also is a staunch supporter of San Diego’s Police,
Fire and Sheriff’s departments. Thanks to his generosity, Critical Communications Centers have been upgraded and mobile
command units for the Police department have been purchased. Spanos’ financial support enabled local agencies to
purchase wildfire fighting gear as well as other fire-fighting
equipment. And in response to an increase in child abduction

cases, Spanos hosted and paid for critical law enforcement
training classes for the Sheriff’s department.
Spanos continues to be a major force in San Diego’s business and civic communities. He has been a top contributor to
Rady Children’s Hospital, the San Diego Blood Bank, the Huntington’s Disease Society of America, San Diego State University’s Campanile Foundation, University of San Diego, STAR/PAL,
the San Diego Police Foundation, the San Diego Hall of Champions and the San Diego High School Sports Association.
Dean and Alex Spanos secured Super Bowl XXXII (1998)
for the City of San Diego, a huge economic benefit for the
community. Super Bowl XXXVII in January 2003 brought
more than $300 million to the San Diego economy and
marked the second time in five years that the San Diego
region enjoyed the financial windfall of hosting a Super Bowl.
COMMUNITY HONORS
Honors for their generosity come frequently to Dean and
Susie. They received the 2012 Herb Klein Spirit of San Diego
Award from the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce
at the organization’s annual awards dinner. In 2011 the Salvation Army recognized Spanos and the Chargers’ dedication
to helping San Diego’s homeless citizens during their annual
Golden Bells ceremony. In 2010 the American Diabetes Association honored Spanos at its annual Fathers of the Year Dinner. In 2007, the local Salvation Army named Dean and Susie
as their Most Valuable Philanthropists.
In 2006 President George W. Bush appointed Spanos as a
Board of Trustees member of the John F. Kennedy Center for
the Performing Arts. That same year he was the honored
recipient of the Golden Achievement Award from the Boys &
Girls Clubs of San Diego and Junior Achievement of San Diego
inducted him into its Hall of Fame for his community leadership
and specifically for his support of youth education initiatives.
The Warner Award, the top honor of the national Pop
Warner football organization, was bestowed on him for his
commitment to youth football and its Little Scholars education initiative in 2005. The San Diego Chapter of the National Football Foundation also presented Spanos with its highest
honor, the Distinguished American Award. In 2004, the Police
Historical Society presented him with their first Cota Award
for community philanthropy and support of law enforcement. Dean and Susie received the Harold Leventhal Community Service Award in 2003, the top national award of the
Huntington’s Disease Society of America.
Spanos has the unique distinction of being a second-generation recipient of the renowned Ellis Island Medal of Honor,
so honored in 2002, 16 years after his father was similarly
honored. He was also inducted into the DeMolay International Alumni Hall of Fame in 2002. DeMolay International is an
organization dedicated to preparing young men to lead successful and productive lives.
In 2001, the San Diego Hall of Champions Sports Museum
presented Dean and Susie with its Community Champions
Award, the Hall’s most distinguished award.
AT&T National Pro-Am at Pebble Beach with partner Hubert
Green. He successfully defended his title at the Hope Classic
in 1991. Spanos’ first win came with Green at the 1985 Bing
Crosby Pro-Am at Pebble Beach, where he was awarded the
“Most Valuable Amateur” trophy for supplying the most help
to his professional partner. Later that year, his second win
came in the 1985 Senior Players Reunion Pro-Am in Dallas,
where he teamed with San Diego native Billy Casper.
Susie received the prestigious Celebration of Life Award in
2011 from the American Cancer Society. She is a spokeswoman for the NFL’s cancer campaign and is a breast cancer
survivor. She also was honored as a "Woman of Dedication"
by the Salvation Army in 2001 and has been named the
Woman of the Year by the San Diego Leukemia Society for
her philanthropic work in the community.
Susie works with and serves on the boards of many charitable organizations in San Diego, including the San Diego
Women’s Foundation. She is a trustee at the Mingei Museum
and an advisory member of Las Patronas, one of San Diego’s
leading non-profit organizations. Susie has been a driving
force in supporting the San Diego Blood Bank and its umbilical cord blood program, helping the Chargers’ annual blood
drive become one of the most successful in the nation.
Dean and Susie’s eldest son A.G. is the Chargers’ executive
vice president – chief executive officer. Previously he spent
three years as the team’s executive officer and five years as
the team’s director of marketing programs and business
development. A.G. is a graduate of the business school at the
University of Southern California. Prior to joining the Chargers full-time in 2001, he interned in the NFL Europe office in
London and at the NFL office in New York. As a freshman,
A.G. attended Tufts University in Medford, Mass., where he
was a member of the football team. In high school, he earned
six varsity letters as a two-sport athlete (basketball and football) at La Jolla Country Day School.
Son John was recently elevated to executive vice president
of football operations for the Chargers. Previously he was the
director of college scouting for five seasons after serving as
assistant director as well as a pro and college scout. John
graduated from Wake Forest University with a degree in business in 2002. He also interned one summer and later worked
one year at the NFL Management Council’s office in New
York. While at The Bishop’s School in La Jolla, John earned
nine varsity letters in a variety of sports – football, basketball
and golf – and played on three championship teams. John
and his wife Jodie reside in La Jolla.

A.G. SPANOS
Executive Vice President — Chief Executive Officer
A.G. Spanos oversees all day-to-day business operations of
the San Diego Chargers, including marketing, sales, public
relations and community relations. He also represents the
organization at all NFL and ownership meetings.
Spanos was named executive vice president–chief executive officer in July 2011 after serving three years as executive
vice president—executive officer (2008-10) and five seasons
as the team’s director of marketing programs and business
development (2003-07).
The Chargers’ bond with their fans and the San Diego community is always top of mind for Spanos, and the 2013 offseason yielded several key examples. In an effort to drive
attendance, build a stronger home-field advantage and help
minimize local television blackouts, Spanos spearheaded a
rescaling of the stadium’s ticket prices and lowered the price
of nearly 10,000 season seats. From 2008-12, the Chargers
were one of just five NFL teams that didn’t raise ticket prices
in that five-year period. Twenty-seven of the NFL’s 32 teams
raised prices, including many more than once.
It was the second time in three years that Spanos lowered
ticket prices. His decision to lower the price of 6,500 seats
going into the 2011 season proved successful as it provided
Chargers fans with more of the most affordable NFL tickets
in the country while also easing the path to additional sellouts and live local telecasts.
A prime example of Spanos’ out-of-the-box thinking took
place in June when the team designated Monday, June 10
“Thank You San Diego Day.” On that day the entire organization ventured out in groups throughout the county, spending
an afternoon thanking fans and San Diegans for their support while sharing the team’s excitement for the coming season. The event drew rave reviews from the local citizenry as
well as local and national media outlets, further cementing
the bond between the team and its fans.
Spanos has led several initiatives that have created more
value for season ticket holders. To reward and thank the
Chargers’ most loyal customers whom he refers to as the
team’s “life blood,” Spanos has created the most attractive list
of benefits ever available, including exclusive events with the
team at Training Camp and Qualcomm Stadium, exclusive fan
forums with players and key personnel, behind-the-scenes
tours, and once-in-a-lifetime prize packages and opportunities.
Spanos also works closely with the team’s customer service, stadium and security partners continually searching for
ways to enhance Chargers fans’ game-day experience and
the team’s Fan Conduct Program. Fan behavior is a strategic
priority for the NFL and the Chargers organization. During the
NFL’s unannounced stadium security checks of all 32 venues
in 2011, the Chargers had the most outstanding review and
ranked first among all teams in the League’s “Fan Conduct
Best Practices” audit.
In an effort to quench Chargers fans unending thirst for
information about their team, Spanos created the organization’s first digital media department. The department has
been instrumental in providing an endless supply of unique
content available only on the team’s official website, while
expanding the Chargers’ social media footprint.
One of Spanos’ first big-picture decisions involved the
development and introduction of the Chargers’ new logo and
marks in 2007, including new uniforms. Six years later in
2013, he helped implement some minor tweaks designed to
enhance the color scheme of the uniforms. Spanos also coordinated efforts with the stadium concessionaire to launch
the opening of the Chargers Team Store at Qualcomm Stadium and he has worked closely with the merchandise partners
who supply the store as well as the team’s Online Pro Shop at
Chargers.com.
Spanos has continued the Chargers’ long-standing tradition
of community support and involvement. In 2002, he founded
“Chargers Auction,” which offers official Chargers merchandise and team-worn memorabilia online. To date the endeavor
has raised more than $530,000 for charity. Spanos has served
on the Executive Committee and the Board of Directors for
the San Diego Hall of Champions Sports Museum and he is a
Trustee for the San Diego Sports Commission. He also serves
on the Board of Directors for the San Diego Regional Chamber
of Commerce and the San Diego Police Foundation.

TOM TELESCO
General Manager
19th NFL Season, 1st season with Chargers
On January 9, 2013, Chargers President Dean Spanos
named former Indianapolis Colts Vice President of Football
Operations, Tom Telesco, the team’s new general manager.
Telesco is overseeing all aspects of football operations and
player personnel decisions for the Chargers.
“We set out to find the right person to bring about positive
change for the San Diego Chargers,” said Spanos at the time
of his hiring. “It was a tough decision, but in the end, all signs
pointed to Tom. He is highly respected among his NFL peers.
His work ethic is extraordinary. He is honest, humble, engaging and an excellent communicator. And, most important, he
knows how to build a winning football team.
“Now that we have this critical piece in place, our goal is
land the right coach to lead the team back to where it
belongs: in the playoffs and to a Super Bowl championship.”
Telesco, 40, is the youngest general manager in Chargers
history. He spent the last 15 seasons with the Colts, serving
in a variety of capacities, including vice president of football
operations (2012), director of player personnel (2006-11),
director of pro scouting (2004-05), pro scout (2001-03) and
area scout (1998-00).
In Indianapolis, Telesco was a part of the decision-making
process that brought quarterback Andrew Luck to the Colts
with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2012 NFL Draft. Luck led the
Colts to a record of 11-5 during his rookie season and a berth
in the AFC Wild Card Playoffs. The Colts went from 2-14 to
11-5 in a span of one year as their roster went through a
complete overhaul. At the end of the 2012 season, the roster
featured 36 new players from the end of the previous year.
Telesco’s tenure with the Colts was one of the most successful eras of the franchise’s history that also included a
move into a new stadium, Lucas Oil Stadium, which played
host to Super Bowl XLVI on Feb. 5, 2012. From 1998-12, the
Colts went 154-86 and appeared in the playoffs 12 times,
winning eight division titles, while finishing second four
times. Those 12 postseason appearances included a victory
over Chicago in Super Bowl XLI following the 2006 season
and a loss to New Orleans in Super Bowl XLIV after the ’09
season. Indianapolis’ 154 wins from 1998-12 were the second-most in the NFL during that span (New England, 168).
“I’m thrilled that Tom has been named the general manager of the Chargers,” said former Bills and Colts General ManTom Telesco’s Experience

ager Bill Polian. “He is a first-rate executive, a first-rate football man and a first-rate person. I’ve had the pleasure of
working with him for over 20 years. I can assure you and
assure all Chargers fans that he will do a great job for them.”
“I had the privilege of working with Tom for seven years in
Indianapolis,” said former Buccaneers and Colts Head Coach
Tony Dungy. “He is a great football man but also a great person.
He understands the game. He knows what good players look
like. He is just very adept at identifying them and finding them.
More than that I think he understands what makes a good
organization. I think he is going to be fantastic for the Chargers.
I’m excited for Tom and excited for the Chargers organization.”
Telesco’s first season in Indianapolis (1998) coincided with
the Colts drafting of another quarterback with the first overall
pick in the NFL Draft, Peyton Manning. Since that time, he was
involved in a number of successful drafts with the Colts that
included the selections of four-time Pro Bowl running back
Edgerrin James, five-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Reggie Wayne
and seven-time Pro Bowl outside linebacker Dwight Freeney.
A native of Buffalo, New York, Telesco worked as a summer
intern at the Bills’ training camps during the 1991-94 seasons.
At the same time, he played wide receiver at John Carroll University in Ohio where he was a starter for the school’s Ohio
Athletic Conference championship team in 1994. Telesco graduated in ’95 with a degree in business management, the same
year he landed his first NFL job as a scouting assistant with the
Carolina Panthers. He spent three years with the Panthers,
including 1997 as an area scout before joining the Colts in ’98.
Telesco and his wife, Larah, have three children: daughter
Elena and sons Thomas and Nicholas.

General Manager, San Diego Chargers
Head Coach
16th NFL Season, 1st season with Chargers
On Jan. 15, 2013, Chargers President Dean Spanos introduced former Denver Broncos Offensive Coordinator Mike
McCoy as the 15th head coach in team history.
“We set out to find the right man to lead the San Diego
Chargers on the field and that man is Mike McCoy,” Spanos
said. “Mike has all of the qualities we were looking for in a
head coach and a leader. He has a very structured vision
about how to build and run a football team. Mike and (new
General Manager) Tom (Telesco) think very much alike and
share very similar beliefs. Mike has shown he has one of the
most innovative minds in football. He has a track record of
building offenses and maximizing the abilities of his players.
He’s a devout family man and understands the value of building and maintaining a family environment here. Mike is energetic, enthusiastic, forward-thinking, and a team builder. Bottom line, he’s a leader. And he’s charismatic. I know our fans
will enjoy getting to know Mike and watching what he does
with the Chargers.”
McCoy, 41, comes to the Chargers from Denver, where he
helped the Broncos to their second-highest win total in franchise history as they went 13-3 and entered the playoffs as
the No. 1 seed in the AFC. The Broncos won 11 straight
games to end the regular season, the second-longest streak
in team history, and became only the seventh Super Bowl-era
team to win their final 11 contests.
“I’ve known Mike for many years and believe he is a tremendous coach,” said Broncos coach John Fox. “We spent nearly a
decade coaching together, beginning in Carolina when he was
an assistant working with the quarterbacks. He’s going to
make an excellent head coach and is certainly qualified for the
position. Mike understands offenses in this league. Beyond
that, he’s got a great football mind. His preparation and
detail—his level of organization—is very strong.”
With McCoy at the helm of the Broncos’ offense, quarterback Peyton Manning threw a team-record 37 touchdown
passes, while posting the second-best season of his career in
yards (4,659) and completion percentage (68.6%). The Broncos ranked fourth in the NFL in total offense and their passing game featured a pair of standout receivers in Demaryius
Thomas and Eric Decker, who combined to become the
youngest receiving duo in NFL history to each top 1,000
yards and 10 touchdowns. Thomas led the way with 1,434
yards and 10 scores on 94 catches, while Decker scored 13
times while hauling in 85 passes for 1,064 yards. Injuries
hampered Denver’s running backs corps during the season
but the group was resilient and combined to rush for 1,832
yards and 12 touchdowns.
“Mike’s a good leader,” said Manning. “He’s had some good
coaches that have been mentors to him; different coaches
that he’s worked with in his years in the NFL that I think he’s
incorporated some of their leadership philosophies and his
own philosophy.”
The 2011 season was a storybook one in Denver as McCoy
helped the Broncos reach the AFC Divisional Playoffs after
winning their first AFC West title since 2005. The Broncos
upset the heavily-favored Pittsburgh Steelers in the Wild Card
Playoffs at Sports Authority Field with quarterback Tim Tebow
throwing an 80-yard touchdown pass to Thomas on the first
play of overtime. The success of the ’11 season was particular-
ly satisfying for McCoy, who had completely revamped Denver’s offense into a read-option attack that meshed with
Tebow’s playing style and the Broncos went on to lead the
NFL with a franchise-record 2,632 yards on the ground.
A couple of other Broncos’ players who starred while playing under McCoy included wide receiver Brandon Lloyd and
running back Willis McGahee. Lloyd led the NFL in receiving
yards (1,448) in 2010 and earned his first Pro Bowl selection,
while also becoming just the fourth wide receiver in team history to receive Associated Press All-Pro honors and McGahee
rushed for 1,199 yards in 2011 to earn his second-career Pro
Bowl selection.
McCoy came to Denver after the ’08 season, becoming
Denver’s offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. In
his first season with the Broncos, quarterback Kyle Orton set
career highs in every major passing category and two Broncos offensive players, wide receiver Brandon Marshall and
left tackle Ryan Clady, earned Pro Bowl honors. Marshall
caught 101 passes that season, tied for third in the NFL, and
set an NFL record with 21 catches in a game against Indianapolis, while Clady added first-team Associated Press AllPro honors to his Pro Bowl selection. Running back Knowshon Moreno also shined under McCoy, earning All-Rookie
honors after leading the league’s rookies in rushing yards,
total yards from scrimmage and total touchdowns.
McCoy played quarterback at Long Beach State and the
University of Utah before signing with the Broncos as an
undrafted free agent in 1995. He ended up spending his
rookie season on the practice squad in Green Bay and then
had stops with NFL Europe’s Amsterdam Admirals, his hometown San Francisco 49ers and the Philadelphia Eagles before
concluding his playing career with the Canadian Football
League’s Calgary Stampeders in 1999.
McCoy transitioned into coaching a year later, joining the
Carolina Panthers as an offensive assistant in 2000. Four
weeks into his first season with the Panthers however, he
was elevated to quarterbacks coach and helped Steve Beuerlein to a 3,730-yard season that ranked seventh in the NFL.
McCoy would end up spending nine seasons in Carolina, serving as wide receivers coach (2001), quarterbacks coach
(2002-08) and passing game coordinator (2007-08). The
Panthers totaled three playoff appearances, two division
titles, two NFC Championship Game appearances and a berth
in Super Bowl XXXVIII (2003) during McCoy’s nine years on
the staff.
McCoy’s main student in Carolina was quarterback Jake
Delhomme, a Pro Bowl pick in 2005 who passed for more
than 3,000 yards four times under his watch. Delhomme
enjoyed his best season for the Panthers in 2004, registering
personal bests in passing yards (3,886) and touchdown passes (29), totals that both ranked second in Panthers’ history. A
year later, the Panthers went 11-5 and advanced to the NFC
Championship Game behind Delhomme, who earned his first
Pro Bowl nod after ranking fourth in the NFL with 24 touchdown passes. McCoy did some of his best coaching with the
Panthers in 2007 when the team went a franchise-best 12-4
in the regular season and earned a first-round bye in the
playoffs. Injuries forced the Panthers to start four different
quarterbacks (none for more than three games in a row) during that ’07 season and Carolina became the first NFL team
in 10 years to win at least one game with four different
starters at quarterback (Delhomme, David Carr, Matt Moore
and Vinny Testaverde).

KEN WHISENHUNT
Offensive Coordinator
26th NFL Season
1st season with Chargers
Former Arizona Cardinals Head Coach Ken Whisenhunt is
the Chargers new offensive coordinator for 2013.
A former NFL tight end and H-Back with the Atlanta Falcons,
Washington Redskins and New York Jets, Whisenhunt, spent
the last six seasons as the head coach of the Cardinals (200712). He won a franchise-record 49 games during his time in Arizona and went 4-2 in the postseason, including an appearance
in Super Bowl XLIII after a team-record 12-win season in 2008.
Prior to becoming a head coach, Whisenhunt spent 10 NFL
seasons as an assistant coach, including six as a tight ends
coach (Baltimore 1997-98, New York Jets 2000 and Pittsburgh 2001-03), one as a special teams coach (Cleveland
1999) and three as an offensive coordinator (Pittsburgh
2004-06). At the conclusion of his second season with the
Steelers (2005), Whisenhunt won a Super Bowl ring as Pittsburgh defeated Seattle, 21-10, in Super Bowl XL. The Steelers drafted quarterback Ben Roethlisberger in Whisenhunt’s
first season as offensive coordinator (2004) and he helped
coach “Big Ben” into one of the NFL’s top signal-callers.
Whisenhunt worked with another star quarterback in Arizona
in Kurt Warner, who helped lead the Cardinals to their Super
Bowl appearance and back-to-back NFC West titles in 200809, their first division title since 1975 and their first back-toback division crowns since 1974-75. He and Warner spent
three seasons together (2007-09) during which Warner passed
for 11,753 yards and 83 touchdowns, including a team-record
30 touchdowns and 4,583 yards (second in team history) in
2008. That ’08 squad scored a Cardinals’ record 427 points, one
year after the 2007 squad set a franchise record with 32 passKen Whisenhunt’s Coaching Experience

ing touchdowns and 404 points, second-most in team history.
Whisenhunt’s first three seasons in Arizona produced
records of 8-8 (2007), 9-7 (2008) and 10-6 (2009) as he
became the first Cardinals coach to go .500 or better in his first
three seasons with the team. The Cardinals were one of the
NFL’s best home teams under Whisenhunt as they combined
to go 33-18 at University of Phoenix Stadium, including 3-0 in
the playoffs. They were .500 or better in each of his six seasons as head coach, the longest such streak in franchise history. The Cardinals won an NFL-record four games in overtime in
2011 to improve Whisenhunt’s record in OT contests to 7-2.
A native of Augusta, Georgia, Whisenhunt played quarterback and tight end at Georgia Tech from 1980-84. In 1985,
the Falcons drafted him in the 12th round and he played nine
seasons in the NFL, including four with the Falcons (1985-88),
two with the Washington Redskins (1989-90) and three with
the New York Jets (1991-93). He played in 74 games during
his career and caught 62 passes for 601 yards and six scores.
He earned a degree in civil engineering from Georgia Tech
and entered the coaching field in 1995, spending two seasons as the special teams and tight ends coach at Vanderbilt.
After two years in Nashville, he landed his first NFL coaching
job with Baltimore in 1997.
Whisenhunt is an avid golfer. A native of Augusta, Ga., he
worked the 18th hole manual scoreboard as a teenager at
the Masters golf tournament, the PGA’s first major of the
year. He’s played the course on a number of occasions,
including May 2008 when he shot an even par 72 that
included an eagle on the par-4 11th hole. Whisenhunt contemplated a career in professional golf and after retiring as a
player in 1993, he spent a year away from football and
played golf extensively, including competing in the ’94 U.S.
Mid-Amateur at the Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska,
Minn. Whishenhunt’s best career score is a 65 and he has
made two holes in one during his lifetime. He also technically
had a third, but it went for a three on his scorecard after his
original tee shot went in the water for a penalty.
Whisenhunt and his wife, Alice, have a son, Kenneth, Jr.,
and a daughter, Mary Ashley.

shy of the team record set by the 1961 squad that returned
nine interceptions for touchdowns. The 2012 Chargers
returned five interceptions and two fumbles for scores. The
Chargers also increased their sack total, going from 32 in
2011 to 38 in 2012, including a team-record-tying 11-sack

in the 2011 draft, finished the year second on the squad with
seven. For the season, Reyes paced the defensive line with 19
quarterback pressures and 15 quarterback hits, while Liuget
ended the year as the defensive line’s leader in sacks, tackles

Pagano originally joined the Chargers in 2002 as the team’s
quality control coach for the defense and moved his way up
the ranks, first as an assistant linebackers coach, then as the
outside linebackers coach and linebackers coach before moving into the coordinator’s role last season.
In 2010, the Chargers had the NFL’s No. 1 ranked defense
and the squad was second in the league in sacks. Since
Pagano first started working with the team’s linebackers in
2005, a player from that group led the team in tackles and
sacks every season, including Shaun Phillips who paced the
squad in 2012 with 9.5. Pagano also worked closely with
Shawne Merriman, who led the NFL in sacks in 2006, was
selected to play in three Pro Bowls and won the NFL’s Defensive Rookie of the Year Award in 2005.
Pagano was born and raised in Boulder, Colo. An all-state linebacker at Fairview High School, he played at Mesa State from
1985-88, earning a degree in business marketing. His older
brother, Chuck, is the head coach of the Indianapolis Colts.
Both John and Chuck played for their father, Sam, who
spent 26 years as the head coach at Fairview High. Sam also
coached internationally in Taiwan, Germany, France and Italy.

1984, Reich led the Terrapins to a 42-40 win over the University of Miami in a game that his squad trailed 31-0. At the time,
it was the largest deficit ever overcome in a college game. Nine

(1992), Reich started for an injured Jim Kelly in an AFC Wild
Card Playoff game against Houston and rallied the Bills from a
35-3 deficit in the third quarter to a 41-38 win over the Oilers.
To this day, it is still the greatest comeback in NFL history.

Wide Receiver
6-5, 217
4th NFL Season
2nd with Chargers
Free Agent - ’12
Missouri
Marlin HS
Marlin, Tex.
One of the feel-good stories to come out of San Diego in
2012 was the arrival of wide receiver Danario Alexander. Cast
aside by his former team after a couple of injury shortened
seasons, the Chargers took a chance on the lanky pass-catcher and he rewarded them with one of the best half-seasons
in recent memory.
Alexander played in 10 games for the Chargers and quickly
became one of Philip Rivers’ favorite targets. He teamed with
Malcom Floyd to give the Bolts a pair of six-foot-five
receivers who could stretch the field. Alexander caught 37
passes for 658 yards and seven touchdowns, which tied for
most on the team and were the third-most in the NFL by any
player after Nov. 1.
Alexander grew up in Marlin, Texas where he idolized the
Dallas Cowboys and their talented trio of Troy Aikman,
Emmitt Smith and Michael Irvin. He paid particular close
attention to Irvin and NFL great Randy Moss and patterned
his game after them.
At Marlin High School, Alexander was a three-sport standout in football, baseball and track & field. He entered high
school as a 5-9, 105 pound freshman and blossomed into a
6-5, 215 pounder by his senior year.
An outstanding senior year at Marlin High led Alexander to
the University of Missouri, where he had an up and down
career. Alexander endured three surgeries to his left knee before
exploding as a senior and posting one of the best seasons in
NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly Division I-A) history.
He finished his senior campaign in 2009 with 113 catches for
an NCAA-leading 1,781 yards and 14 touchdowns. His yardage
total was ninth-most all-time at the FBS level, while his receptions tied for 18th and his yards per game average ranked 20th.
Despite an outstanding senior season, the NFL Draft came
and went without Alexander hearing his name called, partly
due to a knee injury he suffered at the Senior Bowl and a subsequent fourth operation on his left knee. He ended up signing
late as an undrafted free agent with the in-state St. Louis
Rams but was way behind in his NFL development. Alexander
started the season on the Rams’ practice squad, but he worked
hard and earned a promotion to the active roster in mid-October. He even was given the nickname “DX Missile.” Coincidentally, his first NFL game came on Oct. 17, 2010 against the
Chargers and Alexander caught a 38-yard touchdown pass in
the game to help lead the Rams to a 20-17 victory.
Alexander spent two injury-shortened years with the Rams
and when he suffered a hamstring injury in 2012, the team
opted to part ways with the Texas native.
Alexander spent the next several months recovering and
had a few NFL tryouts, including one with the Chargers in
mid-October. After the tryout, he found himself at the airport
on his way back to St. Louis when his agent called and told
Alexander that the Chargers wanted to sign him. He put pen
to paper on Oct. 22 and the rest of the season was one of
storybook proportion.
Alexander studied sociology at Missouri. After he is done playing football, he wants to return to school for a graduate degree
and possibly attend medical school to study orthopedics.
One of Alexander’s closest friends is Philadelphia Eagles
wide receiver and former Missouri teammate, Jeremy Maclin.
For the last two years, Alexander has hosted a football camp
in his hometown of Marlin, Tex. Maclin and a number of NFL
stars, including Chargers teammates Eddie Royal and Mike
Willie, lent their expertise at his 2013 camp in June.
Away from football, Alexander enjoys spending time with
his family and playing golf.

COLIN BAXTER
Center
6-3, 310
2nd NFL Season
3rd with Chargers
Free Agent - ’12
Arizona
Peninsula HS
Rolling Hills, Calif.
Baxter gives the Chargers an experienced interior lineman
who can play both center and guard as well as contributing
on special teams.
The 6-3, 310-pounder has long been known as a tough,
hard-nosed competitor. As a child, he was thrown out of a little league baseball game for mowing over a catcher with a
shoulder-first slide into home. In high school, he was a force
both on the football field and the wrestling mat, where he
posted a 37-7 record as a senior. And at Arizona, Baxter
started 49-straight games, playing the last half of his senior
season with a torn meniscus in his right knee. Only surgery,
which would prepare him for the NFL, prevented him from
playing in his final collegiate game, the 2010 Alamo Bowl.
Baxter likes classic cars. In high school,
he drove a 1964 Ford Galaxie that he and
his grandfather worked on while Baxter
was a teen.

Inside Linebacker
6-4, 250
2nd NFL Season
3rd with Chargers
Free Agent - ’12
Texas Tech
Permian HS
Odessa, Tex.
One of the Chargers’ toughest cuts at the end of training
camp in 2012 was the decision to waive Bird. The former
Texas Tech Red Raider and graduate of the famed Permian
High School in Odessa, Texas, had an outstanding camp and
preseason, but he ultimately became a victim of the numbers
game.
Unsure of his NFL future, Bird moved to Williston, North
Dakota and entered the private sector, overseeing a wastewater treatment business that he started with several current
and former teammates. He also spent time in his native
Texas, where he is part-owner of the Right Cross Boxing Gym.
Then in late November when injuries began to deplete the
team’s linebacking corps, Bird received a call from the Chargers and within a day he was back in San Diego on the practice
field. Bird played in the Chargers’ final five games and he contributed with a couple of big performances in two late-season wins. His first career interception off Pittsburgh’s Ben
Roethlisberger helped seal a Dec. 9 win that was the Chargers’ first ever regular-season win in the Steel City, and his
career-high seven-tackle effort against Oakland helped the
Bolts close out the 2012 season with a 24-21 win over their
arch rivals.

RONNIE BROWN
Running Back
6-0, 223
9th NFL Season
2nd with Chargers
UFA (Philadelphia) - ’12
Auburn
Cartersville HS
Cartersville, Ga.
Brown returned to the Chargers in March, agreeing to a
new one-year contract. The ninth-year pro played in 14
games for the Bolts in 2012 and he was utilized primarily for
his strength as a third-down back, tying for second on the
team with 49 receptions, good for 371 yards.
In 2005, Miami selected Brown with the second overall
pick in the NFL Draft. He played six seasons in Miami, rushing
for 4,815 yards and 36 touchdowns, while catching 184
passes for 1,491 yards and a pair of scores. He still ranks
third on the Dolphins’ all-time list for rushing yards and
touchdowns, and is tied with Hall of Fame running back Larry
Csonka for the second-most 100-yard rushing games in team
history. From 2005-07, Brown averaged better than 4.0
yards per carry for the Dolphins, becoming the team’s first
back to do so for three-straight seasons since 1983-85. He
posted his only 1,000-yard season in 2006, rushing for 1,008
yards, and he was selected for the Pro Bowl in 2008 after
scoring a career-high 10 touchdowns.
A native of Cartersville, Ga., Brown was the state’s 2A Player of the Year in football as a senior at Cartersville High. He
also was a stellar baseball player who was drafted by Major
League Baseball’s Seattle Mariners in the 50th round of the
2000 draft. Brown bypassed the major leagues to attend
Auburn where he became a two-time All-SEC pick.
In Sept. 2010, Brown started the Ronnie Brown Project and a campaign entitled
“23 Ways to Stop Youth Violence.” It was a
project with one main goal: to stop violence in schools. His target was middle and high school students in Miami-Dade and
Broward Counties in Florida, and Brown worked closely with the
Jason Taylor Foundation, Teen Truth Live and the Miami-Dade
Violence Intervention Project to make the program a success.
Brown was a communications major at Auburn. During his
junior year, he interned at the Auburn Network, editing and
producing highlight films. Brown and his wife, Taylor, his college sweetheart, still attend Auburn football games when the
schedule permits.
In March, the couple celebrated the birth of their first child,
son Dillon Rhys.
Brown’s hobbies include traveling, bowling and movies.

VINCENT BROWN
VETERANS &
RETURNING PLAYERS
Wide Receiver
5-11, 190
3rd NFL Season
3rd with Chargers
Draft 3A- ’11
San Diego State
Rancho Cucamonga HS
Rancho Cucamonga, Calif.
Vincent Brown was off to a lightning-fast start in 2012
when in an instant, his season suddenly came to an end.
It happened that fast.
Brown opened the ’12 preseason with a big effort against
Green Bay, leading all receivers with four catches for 81
yards. Then just nine days later in the third quarter of the
team’s second preseason game against Dallas, Brown caught
an 18-yard touchdown pass to give the Bolts a 10-7 lead, but
while being tackled from behind after making the catch,
Brown suffered a broken left ankle. Initially, there was hope
of a return in 2012 but the injury took longer than expected
to heal and Brown was lost for the season. His speed and
athleticism were sorely missed.
Brown worked hard to rehabilitate his ankle and actually
was able to return to practice late in the ’12 season. With
those reps and a full offseason under his belt, he is excited
about the prospects of returning to the level that prompted
the Chargers to select the former San Diego State Aztec in
the third round in the 2011 NFL Draft.
As a rookie, Brown averaged an impressive 17.3 yards per
catch, despite being thrown right into the action as a result of
the NFL Lockout. He finished his rookie season with 19
catches for 329 yards and the Chargers were looking forward
to big things in 2012.
When the Chargers drafted Brown, he became the 14th former Aztec drafted by the team, and the first since quarterback
Jesse Freitas in 1974. A two-time All-Mountain West Conference pick, Brown left school as the third all-time leading receiver in San Diego State history with 209 catches and 3,110 yards.
Brown studied philosophy at San Diego State and became
the first member of his family to graduate from college when
he earned his degree in May 2012. He completed his coursework at the conclusion of his rookie season with the Chargers
and while doing so, co-authored an article that appeared in
the Journal of the Philosophy of Sport in September 2012.
So excited were San Diegans that Brown was
selected by his hometown team that in Sept.
2011, he and teammate Shareece Wright were
invited to throw out the first pitch before a
Padres game at Petco Park.
Nicknamed V.J., Brown enjoys cooking, playing cards and dominoes, listening to music and playing the
drums. He is a very talented drummer who learned to play
when he was six years old.

Washington to face his hometown team, the Redskins, in the
2012 NFC Wild Card Playoffs. Even though Butler was inactive for the game, it was special to be at FedEx Field for a playoff game against the team he grew up rooting for.
Butler, whose given name is Vincent Deon, was a crime, law
and justice major at Penn State where he
took the first steps toward a career in forensic science. He’s currently enrolled in PSU’s
graduate program for cyber security, which Butler hopes will one
day land him a job with the Department of Homeland Security.
Though Butler’s birth name is Vincent, he began going by
Deon after a sportswriter covering him in high school called
him “Neon Deon,” a nod toward former NFL All-Pro cornerback Deion Sanders. Deon, however, was not the only talented athlete in the Butler family. His brother, Lee, was a guard
for the basketball team at the University of Miami (Fla.) during the 2004-05 and 2005-06 seasons.
He enjoys mystery novels, playing basketball and riding jet skis.

VETERANS &
RETURNING PLAYERS
The Chargers added speed to the squad in April when they
signed former Seattle Seahawk Deon Butler.
A native of Woodbridge, Va., Butler enrolled at Penn State
as a walk-on cornerback and left the State College, Pa. campus as the Nittany Lions’ all-time leading receiver. He made an
immediate impact, setting a freshman record with nine touchdown catches. The Seahawks drafted him in the third-round
in 2009, trading away three picks to move up in the draft to
make that selection, and Butler played in all 16 games as a
rookie. A year later, he set career highs with 36 catches, 385
yards and four touchdowns, but he suffered a broken leg after
catching a two-yard touchdown pass late in a December game
against NFC West rival San Francisco. That injury ended up
costing Butler the remainder of the 2010 season and most of
the 2011 season while he recovered. Butler was released at
the end of training camp in 2012, but the Seahawks re-signed
him late in the season as injuries depleted their wide receivers
corps and Butler was on the roster when Seattle traveled to

Donald Butler has quickly evolved into one of San Diego’s
top defensive players. He was well on his way to a secondconsecutive 100-tackle season in 2012 when his year was
cut short by a groin injury, one that resulted in his missing
four games late in the year. Despite the injury, Butler still
accumulated 94 tackles, third among Chargers defenders.
Butler was one of the team’s top feel-good stories in 2011.
A former third-round pick from 2010 whom the Chargers
traded up 12 spots to select, the Bolts were looking for big
things from the former Washington Husky as a rookie. But
one afternoon during an early training camp practice, Butler
tore his left Achilles tendon during a pass rush drill and his
rookie season ended before it began.
Butler spent all of 2010 rehabilitating and when 2011
arrived, the door of opportunity swung wide open. Butler paid
close attention and took copious notes from veteran inside
linebacker Takeo Spikes, who had signed as a free agent that
July. The two ended up starting side-by-side and Butler’s
repaired Achilles held up as he and Spikes ranked 1-2 on the
team in tackles with 119 and 102, respectively. By the time the
’11 season concluded, Butler had started all 16 games and he
was the only Chargers defender to hang a number in every
statistical defensive category.
Butler studied construction management at
Washington. His mom, Janet Rice, is a single parent who has worked for the Oakland (Calif.)
Housing Authority for a number of years. Her
career path is what spurred an interest in Donald in the business
side of construction. For two years while he was in college, he
interned with the Walsh Construction Co. in Tacoma, Wash.

The second-longest tenured player on the Chargers’ offensive line, Jeromey Clary switched from tackle to guard in
2013 and he has excelled.
Clary started 14 games in 2012 and 46 of the last 48
games at right tackle, but with the arrival of top draft choice
D.J. Fluker, the coaches have asked Clary to slide over to
guard and serve as a mentor for the rookie right tackle.
Clary was the Chargers’ winner of the Ed Block Courage
Award in 2010 after recovering from a serious ankle injury in
2009 that required surgery. He came back from the injury
and played every snap during the 2010 and ’11 seasons and
in July 2011, the Chargers rewarded him with a new fouryear contract.
Clary became a starter late in the 2007 season. A reserve
for most of the year, the coaches inserted him into the starting lineup at right tackle in early December to give the team’s

Cornerback
6-1, 195
5th NFL Season
1st with Chargers
UFA (Jacksonville) – ’13
William & Mary
Rose HS
Greenville, N.C.
The Chargers made a key signing during the early stages
of March’s free agency period with the addition of former
Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Derek Cox to a four-year
deal. A third-round pick of the Jaguars in 2009, Cox racked
up a team-leading 12 interceptions over the last four seasons (2009-12), more than double the total of the Jaguars’
next-closest defender.
A native of Greenville, N.C., Cox was a state champion
football and baseball player at Rose High School. At William
& Mary, he became a two-time team captain
and a two-time All-Colonial Athletic Association defender. With his selection by the Jaguars
in the third round of the NFL Draft, Cox
became the second-highest drafted player in William & Mary
history. He’s the first former Tribesman to play for the Chargers since kicker Steve Christie (2001-03).
As a rookie, Cox didn’t wait long to make an impression on
Jaguars fans. On the first possession of his first-career game
in the 2009 season opener, Cox intercepted then-Indianapolis quarterback Peyton Manning in the end zone, and on the
second possession of the game, he recovered a fumble by
running back Joseph Addai. Cox was only the second Jacksonville rookie to open the season as the team’s starting cornerback and he started all 16 games, leading the team with
four picks. As a second-year player in 2010, Cox was limited
to 13 games and 11 starts, but again led the squad with four
interceptions. He appeared in just six games in 2011, but
returned to start 12 of 12 games played in 2012 and once
again led the Jaguars with four interceptions.
Cox has a fraternal twin sister, Shannon, a brother, Travis,
who played football at East Carolina and two other siblings,
sister, Alisha, and oldest brother, Lyman. Travis’ teammate at
ECU was former Jaguars quarterback David Garrard, who was
a teammate of Derek’s in Jacksonville. Cox’s parents have
been married for 44 years and still reside in Greenville. His
mom, Claudette, is a retired school teacher, and his father,
Lyman, still runs his own construction and renovations business.
In Jacksonville, Cox was one of the Jaguars’ most-active
players in the community. A member of the Ebony Expression
Gospel Choir, he recorded a public service announcement for
the Jacksonville Children’s Chorus to encourage kids to get
involved in chorus, and he served as a spokesperson for the
Jacksonville Food Bank. Cox also supported causes and
events that dealt with homelessness, prostate cancer awareness, and the prevention of teen pregnancy and HIV/AIDS.
Earlier this year, he was invited to speak about teamwork and
leadership at the FBI’s office in Jacksonville as part of Black
History Month.
Cox and the former Julie Dewberry were married this in
July in Charlottesville, Virginia. They met in college. Dewberry
graduated from the George Mason University School of Law
while Cox was beginning his NFL career with the Jaguars.
They both enjoy music and Dewberry taught Cox to play the
piano. The couple owns two dogs, a Yorkshire Terrier named
Rambo and a Rottweiler puppy named George.
Cox, who collects and enjoys reading self-help and selfimprovement books, envisions a career in business after his
NFL playing days come to an end. In February 2013, he participated in the NFL’s Business Management and Entrepreneurial Program at the Wharton School of the University of
Pennsylvania.

PHILLIP DILLARD
Free Agent – ’12
Nebraska
Jenks
Jenks, Okla.
Late last season the Chargers signed Dillard to their practice squad and the former fourth-round pick of the New York
Giants will have a chance to showcase his skills as he competes for a roster spot in 2012.
Dillard, whose brother, Gabe Lynn, is a starting cornerback at
the University of Oklahoma, played for the Sooners’ longtime
rival, the University of Nebraska where he was a second-team
all-conference pick as a senior in 2009. He finished that ’09
season with a career-high 83 tackles, second on the team and
just two behind Ndamukong Suh, who went on to become the
second overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft by the Detroit Lions.
Dillard played in seven games for the Giants as a rookie and
was mostly relegated to special teams. After being released in
2011, he spent time on the Carolina Panthers’ practice squad
and in 2012, he played for the UFL’s Omaha Nighthawks.
Dillard patterned his game after recently retired Baltimore
Ravens All-Pro linebacker Ray Lewis and he wore Lewis’ No.
52 while a collegian at Nebraska.
A sociology major in college, Dillard has aspirations of a
post-football career in law enforcement.

A former undrafted free agent from San Diego State who’s
been with the team since 2008, Dombrowski battled a foot
injury that kept him from the field last season.
Now recovered, the versatile Dombrowski will look to earn
a spot on the offensive line. His versatility will be key as he’s
taken snaps with the Bolts at right guard, right tackle and
left tackle.
Dombrowski’s father, Ken, is a former defensive tackle who played for the CFL’s Hamilton
Tiger Cats and Calgary Stampeders, and the USFL’s Pittsburgh Maulers.
Dombrowski has lent his personal time to support efforts
that benefit the local military, specifically the Marine CorpsLaw Enforcement Foundation (MCLEF) and the Armed Forces
YMCA. He also hosted a fundraiser to help the Pop Warner
youth football team in the San Diego suburb of Alpine to purchase new helmets for their teams.

also played collegiately at Kentucky where she was an All-America and the SEC Player of the Year who also competed in the
high jump for the Wildcats’ track and field team.
Dunlap, who loves roller coasters, finds the only downside
to being 6-9 is that he’s too tall to ride most of them. He hit
his big growth spurt in the eighth grade, going from 5-11 to
6-5. He played middle linebacker as a youth before shifting
to the defensive line and ultimately to the offensive line.
Dunlap, whose full name, King David Dunlap V, was derived
from the Bible’s King David, has two sons, King VI and Jaylen,
and a daughter, Kayla. Lifelong friend and former University

In March, the Chargers landed one of the NFL’s biggest
free agents, literally, when they signed 6-9, 330-pound tackle, King Dunlap, to a two-year contract.
The former Philadelphia Eagle spent the majority of his first
five seasons as a reserve before moving into the starting lineup in 2012, opening 12 games for the Eagles.
Dunlap’s father, King Dunlap IV, is a former defensive tackle
who played collegiately at Tennessee State before the Baltimore
Colts picked him in the fifth round of the
1969 NFL Draft. His mother, Robin, is a former track star who also competed at Tennessee State, while his younger sister, Victoria, is a starting forward for the WNBA’s Seattle Storm. Victoria

Northern Illinois
Marmion Military Academy
Aurora, Ill.
The Chargers’ first-round pick from the 2009 NFL Draft is
looking toward taking another step forward in his pro career.
English played in 14 games last season, the most he’s
appeared in since his rookie year. He played in all 16 games
with two starts in 2009, but he was limited to just 13 games
and two starts during the 2010-11 seasons while struggling
to recover from a broken foot.
As a collegian at Northern Illinois, English was a two-time
winner of the Vern Smith Leadership Award as the top player in
the Mid-American Conference. He became only the second
defensive player in MAC history to win the award once, and
more impressively, he became only the fourth player ever to win
it twice. English left Northern Illinois as the school’s all-time
leader in sacks (31.5) and tackles for loss (63). An honor roll student, he was also one of only 30 students nationwide to be
nominated to receive the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award for excellence in Classroom, Character, Community and Competition.
English has battled asthma since early childhood. As an
adult, it has steered him toward a partnership with the American Lung Association and his LEAD (Leading Education to
Athletes for their Dreams) Foundation, which he created with
the help of his mother, Susan. English has hosted a number
of events and programs, including a benefit concert and allstar gala in San Diego, a football camp and a one-on-one
reading and mentorship program in his hometown of Aurora,
Ill. English also helped create a program called Open Airways
that helps schools diagnose asthma in students.
English’s uncle, Charles Richardson, lettered as fullback at
Wisconsin in 1972.

er percentage. Floyd’s first 23 catches of the season all went
for first downs and his first catch that didn’t result in a first
down wasn’t until Dec. 11. Floyd finished 2011 with a careerhigh 856 yards and a career-best 19.9-yard average, which
was the highest in the league among players with more than
800 yards receiving. It was also the ninth highest average in
team history among players with at least 40 catches.
An undrafted free agent from a heralded class in 2004,
Floyd is one of the team’s most popular players. He’s a second generation NFL wide receiver who followed in the footsteps of his older brother, Malcolm, who played wide receiver
for the Houston Oilers, Tennessee Titans and St. Louis Rams
in the mid ’90s. The elder Floyd is currently the head football
coach at C.K. McClatchy High School in Sacramento, Calif.
Floyd’s mother, Leataata, still resides in Sacramento where
she volunteers as a mentor, tutor, counselor and ambassador,
who teaches Polynesian dancing after school each day at one
of the poorest schools in the city. In 2012, the Sacramento
School District paid tribute to Floyd by changing the name of
the school where she has given so much of her time from
Jedediah Smith Elementary to Leataata Floyd Elementary.
Floyd and his wife, Daphne, have two sons, Maiu and Malc.
In his spare time, Malcom enjoys playing basketball and
spending time grilling out with his family. An all-conference
hoopster in high school, Floyd’s team won the school’s intramural championship while he was an undergrad at Wyoming.

The veteran member of the Chargers’ receiving corps,
Floyd is the team’s reigning Offensive Player of the Year.
Floyd was on his way to a 1,000-yard season in 2012
when his campaign was cut short by two games as result of
an ankle injury. He still managed to lead the team with a
career-high 56 catches and score five touchdowns.
He’ll again pair with Danario Alexander to give the Chargers a formidable pair of six-foot-five field stretchers in San
Diego’s new offense headed up by Offensive Coordinator
Ken Whisenhunt and Head Coach Mike McCoy.
The Chargers love Floyd’s big-play ability and in September
2012, just days after the team’s third game of the year, he
signed a three-year contract extension that goes through the
2015 season and will most likely allow him to finish his career
in Lightning Bolts.
A mainstay in the Chargers’ offensive lineup since 2008,
Floyd’s totals the last five seasons include 208 catches for
3,628 yards and 21 touchdowns. His 17.4 yards per catch average during the most-recent five-year stretch is the third-highest
in the NFL. Only Vincent Jackson (18.3) and DeSean Jackson
(17.5) have averaged more yards per catch during that time.
Floyd performed a rather impressive feat in 2011 when 41
of his 43 catches went for first downs. The 95.3 percent clip
was the second-highest in NFL history (min. 32 catches). Only
Henry Ellard, who totaled 71 first downs on 74 catches
(95.9%) for the Washington Redskins in 1994, posted a high-

DWIGHT FREENEY
Outside Linebacker
6-1, 268
12th NFL Season
1st with Chargers
UFA (Indianapolis) – ’13
Syracuse
Bloomfield HS
Bloomfield, Conn.
Freeney’s parents, Hugh, Sr. and Joy, were Jamaican natives and
that was the game he’d primarily been exposed to as a child. It
was only after some good-natured ribbing from classmates
about his soccer uniform that Freeney opted for a move to the
gridiron as a sophomore. He ended up a four-sport star for the
Warhawks, lettering in football, basketball, baseball and soccer.
He led the football team to a state title in 1997 and even
though football was the sport that ultimately led to a professional career, Freeney was an excellent center fielder and power
hitter for the baseball team. He hit one of the longest home
runs in school history, clearing a road that runs behind the
school’s baseball field. With his legacy cast, Freeney returned to
Connecticut in 2007 for Dwight Freeney Day, which included
the retirement of the No. 44 uniform he wore as a prep.
Freeney’s success on the field catapulted him into an array
of opportunities off the field, including the nonprofit world
and the entertainment industry.
He oversees the Dwight Freeney Foundation, which has
hosted a number of events. They include a football camp, a
FanFest designed to thank Colts fans, as well as a program
that provided Thanksgiving meals for needy families through
Indianapolis’ Boys and Girls Clubs. Freeney also raised funds
for charities in his home state of Connecticut through events
that included a celebrity golf classic.
Freeney’s celebrity status has led to red carpet invitations
for a wide variety of events from the ESPY’s to the Grammy
Awards. His star quality and easy-going nature have taken
him to events that range from album release parties to
fundraisers for Pediatric AIDS. Freeney has been a frequent
guest and contributor for numerous sports television shows,
including ESPN’s “Rome is Burning”, The NFL Network’s “Total
Access” and FOX Sports Net’s “Best Damn Sports Show Period.” Freeney also was featured on ESPN’s Monday Night
Football Countdown’s “Unmasked,” in 2012 and he was a
guest on the popular daytime talk show, “Dr. Phil.” His other
screen credits include an appearance on Fox’s highest rated
reality series, “Hell’s Kitchen,” and he starred in NBC’s hit Sunday Night Football commercial with Faith Hill. Freeney’s popularity also has led to appearances on the covers of Sports
Illustrated and The Sporting News, while he was featured as
Ebony’s hottest bachelor of 2008 and has been written
about in People Magazine, Men’s Health and USA Today.
Freeney is of Jamaican heritage. He enjoys cooking, particularly Caribbean and Jamaican food. Freeney’s other hobbies
include golf and bowling.

RETURNING PLAYERS
The Chargers bolstered their defense this offseason by signing seven-time Pro Bowl outside linebacker Dwight Freeney
from the Indianapolis Colts.
Freeney spent his first 11 professional seasons in Indianapolis, helping the Colts to a Super Bowl title after the 2006
season (Super Bowl XLI). A native of Bloomfield, Connecticut,
where he set a state record for career sacks, Freeney was the
Colts’ first pick in the 2002 NFL Draft (11th overall) after an
All-America career at Syracuse. It concluded with him being
named the Big East Conference's co-Defensive Player of the
Year after he led the nation with 17.5 sacks as a senior.
Freeney didn’t waste any time making his presence felt in the
NFL. He earned All-Rookie honors in 2002 after setting a
franchise record with 13 sacks, second all-time among rookies
to the 14.5 recorded by Tennessee’s Jevon Kearse in 1999.
Besides seven Pro Bowl selections, Freeney was named AllPro four times, he was selected to the NFL’s all-Decade Team for
the 2000s in 2009 and the Kansas City Committee of 101
named him its Defensive Player of the Year in 2005. He racked
up a Colts-record 107.5 sacks, becoming the 26th player in NFL
history with more than 100 career sacks. Freeney and Robert
Mathis combined to give the Colts a devastating one-two punch
as they became the first defensive end tandem from the same
team to be named to three consecutive Pro Bowls (2008-10)
since 1970. Freeney’s ledger includes sacks against 53 different
quarterbacks and 27 of the NFL’s 32 teams. At the end of the
2012 season, he had the fifth-most sacks among active players,
ranking behind only Atlanta’s John Abraham (122.0), Minnesota’s Jared Allen (117.0), Chicago’s Julius Peppers (111.5) and
Dallas’ DeMarcus Ware (111.0). Freeney is the only player in
Colts history to post seven double-digit sack seasons, including a
franchise-record and NFL-leading 16 in 2004, when he became
the first player in team history to win the league’s sack title. He
set a franchise record by recording at least one sack in ninestraight games over the 2008-09 seasons and owns the threehighest single-season sack marks in Colts history.
Freeney’s career totals heading into 2013 include 163 games
played, 143 starts, 378 tackles, 44 forced fumbles, 14 passes
defensed and three interceptions.
Including his Super Bowl appearance, Freeney has played
and started 17 postseason games during his career.
As a high schooler, Freeney didn’t start with ambitions of
becoming one of the NFL’s best players. His older brother,
Hugh, played quarterback at Bloomfield, but Freeney started his
athletic career as a goalie for the school’s soccer team. Both of

ANDREW GACHKAR
Inside Linebacker
6-3, 240
3rd NFL Season
3rd with Chargers
Draft 7 – ’11
Missouri
Blue Valley West HS
Overland Park, Kan.
A seventh-round draft pick in 2011, Andrew Gachkar has
done exactly what he needed to do to make the team: excel on
special teams. Gachkar tied for the team lead with 12 special
teams tackles as a rookie and as a second-year player he tied for
fourth. He’s also gained valuable experience in limited time as a
reserve linebacker. That experience again bodes well for the former Missouri Tiger as he heads into his third NFL season.
Gachkar overcame a life-threatening ailment to even be able
to play football. In 2007, after his freshman year at Missouri,
he was diagnosed with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome. He had
developed a blood clot because his collarbone and rib cage
were too close together to allow proper blood flow through
his veins. As a result, he underwent major surgery to remove
one of his ribs, and a second surgery after another clot developed. Gachkar spent more than 20 hours in surgery and nearly
a month in the hospital and he lost 30 pounds. The surgeries
initially put his football future in doubt, but Gachkar was diligent in his rehabilitation and he made it back for the 2008 season without missing a game.
Gachkar left Missouri as a first-team All-Big 12 choice. He
led one of the most improved defenses in the nation in 2010
with a team-best 81 tackles, while also leading the Tigers in
interceptions, forced fumbles, fumble recoveries and blocked
kicks.
Gachkar and his high school sweetheart, Lauren Nuckolls,
were married in Missouri in March 2013.

ANTONIO GATES
VETERANS &
RETURNING PLAYERS
Tight End
6-4, 255
11th NFL Season
11th with Chargers
Free Agent - ’03
Kent State
Central HS
Detroit, Mich.
Antonio Gates is one of the NFL’s top tight ends of all
time. In 2012 the future Hall of Famer became the franchise’s all-time leader for career touchdown catches. He
enters 2013 with 83 career scores.
In 2012, Gates tied for the team lead with seven touchdown catches, while ranking second in receptions and yards. It
was the ninth year in a row that he totaled at least seven
touchdown catches. Gates and quarterback Philip Rivers have
been on the opposite end of 56 touchdown catches, the most
in NFL history between a quarterback-tight end tandem.
In 2013, the NFL Network ranked Gates at No. 73 on their
list of the top 100 players in the NFL. It was a list that was
compiled in voting by players.
In addition to leading the team in touchdown catches,
Gates holds team records for receptions (642) and consecutive games with a touchdown catch (tied, nine), and he ranks
third in receiving yards (8,321). Both of the players who rank
ahead of him in terms of yards are Hall of Fame wide
receivers, Charlie Joiner (9,203) and Lance Alworth (9,584).
Gates has a chance to pass both in 2013, needing 883 yards
to pass Joiner and 1,264 to pass Alworth.
Besides his position as the preeminent tight end in franchise history, Gates is beloved in the San Diego community.
He has given back since he arrived as a free agent basketball
phenom from Kent State University and continues to do so.
His signature Shop with a Charger event is one of the most
popular holiday events in town as Gates hosts homeless,
neglected and abused children to a special night that includes
a Christmas shopping spree. He is also
the honorary chairman for the Shoot to
Cure HD, which raises much-needed
research funds for the Huntington’s Disease Society of America. And he works closely with Promises2Kids, an organization that offers support to San Diego’s
foster youth community.
Gates’ route to the NFL has been well-chronicled. When he
signed with the Chargers in 2003, he had not played football
since his senior season at Central High School in Detroit. He
began his collegiate career at Michigan State under the
assumption that he could play both football and basketball,
but when the football coach relented, Gates chose to focus
on hoops and decided it was best to leave the East Lansing
campus. An up-and-down start to his basketball career sent
him to three different schools before he finally found a home
at Kent State, where in two seasons he helped lead the Golden Flashes to back-to-back Mid-American Conference championships and the Elite Eight of the 2002 NCAA Tournament.
Gates ended his career as the sixth-leading scorer in school
history and in Feb. 2010, he returned to the Kent, Ohio, campus to have his No. 44 jersey retired by the school.
Gates now heads into 2013, his 11th NFL season, with
several additional milestones in sight. He has scored 498
career points and needs just two more to become the sixth
player and the third non-kicker to score at least 500 for his
career. And his 642 career catches rank fifth all-time among
tight ends. With 21 more, he’ll pass Hall of Fame tight end
Ozzie Newsome (662) for the fourth-most catches by a player in their position group in league history.
Gates is a member of the NFL’s All-Decade Team (2000-09),
he’s one of the Chargers’ 50 Greatest Players of All-Time, an
eight-time Pro Bowl all-star and a three-time first-team All-Pro.
Gates’ paternal grandfather, Henry Hank, was a professional boxer in the 1950s and ’60s. who fought 97 professional bouts as a middleweight and light
heavyweight, winning 62 of them. His
1962 fight against Joey Giardello was
voted the Fight of the Year by Ring Magazine. Old photos
show a striking resemblance between Gates and his grandfather, and many in the family believe that Gates inherited his
athletic ability from him.
Had Gates not opted for a career in athletics, he might
have tried his hand as a firefighter. A couple of years ago, a
group of firefighters attended a training camp practice and
one of the most enamored players was Gates. He told several of them that long ago he’d dreamed of being a firefighter
so several weeks later, the assistant San Diego fire chief
returned to Chargers Park and presented Gates with a SDFD
firefighters jacket with his own name and number.

MARCUS GILCHRIST
VETERANS &
RETURNING PLAYERS
Cornerback-Safety
5-10, 198
3rd NFL Season
3rd with Chargers
Draft 2A – ’11
Clemson
Andrews HS
High Point, N.C.
A second-round pick in the 2011 NFL Draft, the Chargers
will take advantage of Marcus Gilchrist’s experience at safety
after he spent the majority of his first two seasons as the
team’s nickel corner.
Gilchrist played in all 16 games last season and he made
four starts. His 76 tackles were third-most among the secondary and fifth-most on the team. He also collected his first
sack and broke up five passes.
As a rookie, Gilchrist won the team’s nickel job right out of
training camp and he earned his first start just four games
into the season. Not surprisingly, that day’s opponent, the
Miami Dolphins, went right after the rookie corner, but
Gilchrist intercepted the first pass thrown in his direction and
his defense helped the Chargers to a victory.
Gilchrist came to the Chargers from Clemson University
where he was a star among stars. Four of his defensive teammates were selected in the 2011 NFL Draft. According to the
Tigers’ coaches though, it was Marcus’ football IQ that made
him stand out, along with an impressive showing at the NFL
combine where he posted a 38-inch vertical leap and put up
26 bench-press repetitions at 225 pounds, second-most
among all defensive backs.
Gilchrist had toughness and discipline
instilled at home at an early age from his
father, Ronny, a retired United States
Marine. Ronny played sports and boxed in
the service. He had Marcus doing push-ups

RICHARD GOODMAN
Wide Receiver-Kick Returner

3rd NFL Season
4th with Chargers
Florida State
St. Thomas Aquinas HS
Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.
Aquinas High School in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., Goodman didn’t
even play until his senior year. By then, most of the major colleges had doled out their scholarship offers, but when he
began to beat some of the top prep recruits in the state during the playoffs his senior season, colleges began to take
notice. Florida State was one of the first to offer a scholarship and the sincerity of former coach Bobby Bowden is what
led Goodman to Tallahassee to play for the Seminoles.
One of Goodman’s childhood heroes was Michael Irvin,
another alum of St. Thomas Aquinas. The two men grew up in
the same area and Goodman has tried to train, compete and
approach the game the same way that the Hall of Fame receiver did during his illustrious career. Goodman’s best friend is
another St. Thomas alum, Chicago Bears safety Major Wright.
Goodman is the oldest of four children who was raised by
a single mom with help from his paternal grandmother,
Olinthia, who passed in 1998. Now that he’s grown, Goodman has ambitions of starting a foundation to assist single
moms. Goodman has a teardrop tattooed below his right eye
in memory of his late grandmother and another on his left
forearm that’s a tribute to his mother.
In his spare time, Goodman works to elevate his game and
become a better person off the field.

Richard Goodman, or “Goody” as he’s known by teammates, is raising the bar in San Diego. He’s been the team’s
featured kick returner the last two seasons and he set the
franchise record for the longest kickoff return in team history when he brought back a kick 105 yards for a touchdown
in the 2011 season finale against Oakland. Goodman was in
the midst of another big year in 2012 when he was felled by
a hamstring injury while returning the opening kickoff during
the Bolts’ Oct. 28 game in Cleveland. The injury ended a
franchise-record streak for Goodman of seven straight
games (dating back to 2011) in which he had at least one
return of 30 yards or longer.
Before the injury, Goodman was averaging 27.6 yards per
return for the season, same as his career average. Had he
played the full 2012 season, Goodman most likely would have
attained the necessary 75 returns to qualify for the team’s alltime kickoff return average record (25.3), set by Leslie
“Speedy” Duncan. Through a rigorous rehabilitation program,
Goodman’s hamstring has completely healed and with another solid season and 24 more kickoff returns, he should easily
take over the franchise mark in 2013.
A gym rat, Goodman loves to work out. He plays football
with a chip on his shoulder after almost being overlooked to
play at a major college. As a prep at powerhouse St. Thomas

2nd NFL Season
2nd with Chargers
For Ladarius Green, the Chargers’ fourth-round pick in the
2012 NFL Draft, his rookie season was an opportunity to
watch, learn, spend time in meetings with, and train alongside a future Hall of Fame tight end in Antonio Gates.
Green played in just four games as a rookie, showing flashes of what’s to come with four catches for 56 yards. Now in
his second pro season, the door of opportunity is wide open
as he’ll have a chance to see more playing time in the Chargers’ new offensive system.
Green came from the University of Louisiana-Lafayette
where he was a three-time All-Sun Belt League choice. The
6-6, 240-pounder caught 149 passes for 2,201 yards and
22 touchdowns during his career with the Ragin’ Cajuns and
his 22 touchdown catches were the second-most in school
history behind NFL free agent wide receiver Brandon Stokley. Green played his final college game against San Diego
State in the 2011 New Orleans Bowl and his five-catch,

Green excelled in the classroom at ULL, earning a degree in

pursue a career in investment banking.
Both of Green’s parents, Shannon and Walter, served in
the Army and Green was born in Berlin, Germany, while his
parents were serving.
Despite his 6-6 frame, Green’s nickname is “Pee Wee.” It is
a moniker he was given as a high school junior when he
stood just 5-10. Even though he hit a major growth spurt
shortly thereafter and shot up to his present height, the
name had stuck and teammates still refer to him as Pee Wee.
Green’s first cousin is former Chargers guard Tyronne

NICK HARDWICK
VETERANS &
RETURNING PLAYERS
Center
6-4, 305
10th NFL Season
10th with Chargers
Draft 3B - ’04
Purdue
Lawrence North HS
Indianapolis, Ind.
The Chargers’ Lineman of the Year in 2011 and 2012, and
a member of the Chargers 50th Anniversary All-Time Team,
Hardwick has long been a steadying force as the senior member of the team’s offensive line.
Hardwick was one of only two linemen to start every game
last season on a line that saw three different starting left
tackles, and two different starters at both left guard and
right tackle. He now heads into his 10th NFL season in 2013
having started 50 straight games at center and a total of 119
for his career.
Hardwick had one of his best seasons as a pro in 2012,
though for a time he contemplated stepping away from the
game and from the only city he’s played in as a professional.
After the 2011 season ended, Hardwick became an unrestricted free agent, he had recently become a new father, and
he had just watched one of his best friends and linemates left guard Kris Dielman - retire after suffering a serious concussion. All three factors led Hardwick to ponder whether he
wanted to continue playing football, and if he did, whether he
wanted to play it in San Diego or make a fresh start elsewhere.
But when the dust settled just prior to the start of free
agency, Hardwick decided that home is where the heart is,
and he opted to sign a new three-year contract with the
Chargers. It was a big decision for Hardwick and his family, but
having the chance to continue his career in the same city
where he started lifted a huge burden from the shoulders of
he and his wife, Jayme.
With all the accolades, it’s hard to believe that just four
seasons ago in 2009, Hardwick suffered an ankle injury so
severe that it nearly ended his career. He missed 13 games
that season, but returned in time for a late-season push to
the playoffs and he hasn’t missed a game since. Charged with
calling out the blocking schemes and making changes at the
line of scrimmage, Hardwick shares a close bond with quarterback Philip Rivers.
When Hardwick returned from the ankle injury and started
all 16 games for the NFL’s No. 1 ranked offense in 2010,
teammates honored him with a share of the team’s Emil
Karas Memorial Award as its most inspirational player.
A Pro Bowl selection in 2006, Hardwick has been a starter
since his rookie season (2004). The Chargers have rushed for
at least 1,700 yards in all but one season that he has started
at least 12 games, including a team-record 2,578 yards in ’06.
Hardwick grew up in Indianapolis. As a youth, he played
hockey on an international traveling team and was a standout
prep wrestler. With wrestling as a possible ticket to fulfill his
dreams of becoming a Marine aviator, Hardwick went to Purdue on a Marine Corps ROTC Scholarship. One of his father’s
cousins, Joe McCormick, was a former Air Force pilot and he
inspired Hardwick to acquire his pilot’s license before he
turned 18. He earned the money to pay for his flying lessons
by collecting golf balls at a local driving range. But Hardwick’s
mission was altered after former Chargers
quarterback Drew Brees led the Boilermakers
to the 2001 Rose Bowl. Hardwick saw the
excitement it generated on the Purdue campus,
and the following fall he decided to walk on to the school’s
football team. A year after earning a spot as a scout team
defensive tackle, he became the Boilermakers’ starting center
and earned all-conference honors.
Hardwick maintains close ties to his alma mater where
Jayme also competed as a member of the school’s women’s
soccer team. In 2007, he endowed an annual football scholarship that is given to a walk-on player who earns it, just as
Hardwick did. And in 2008, Purdue presented him with the
Drew Brees Mental Attitude Award, presented by the Joe
Tiller/Northwest Indiana Chapter of the National Football
Foundation. Hardwick became the fourth former Boilermaker
to receive the award.
Owner of a management degree from Purdue, Hardwick is
the Chargers’ union representative and he guided the players
through the NFL Lockout in 2011. He sharpened his business
acumen when he attended the NFL’s Business and Entrepreneurial Program at the Wharton School at the University of
Pennsylvania in 2009. It is a special program where NFL players and front office employees spend a week learning a
broad range of business topics from some of the country’s
most well-known educators.
In December 2011, the Hardwicks became first-time parents. Hudson Harold Hardwick, was born the night before the
Chargers’ nationally-televised game against the Baltimore
Ravens and the next night, NBC showed America a picture of
baby Hudson during the broadcast of the game.
Hardwick has been involved in a number of charitable
causes throughout his career, but his main devotion is to the
Marine Corps-Law Enforcement
Foundation (MCLEF), an organization that raises money to provide
advanced education for the children of Marines and law
enforcement officers killed in the line of duty.
In his free time, Hardwick enjoys reading, drawing and
spending time at the beach with his family.

One of the gutsiest performances of the 2012 season was
turned in by an undrafted rookie from UCLA. Mike Harris
exceeded all expectations as he performed at one of the
NFL’s most-challenging positions.
A former right tackle at UCLA, the 6-5, 318-pounder wasn’t
even one of the team’s most sought after undrafted free

off the field during training camp, Harris became the “next man

to earn the confidence of his teammates and the coaching
staff. And when the 2012 season opener in Oakland arrived,
Harris was tabbed as the team’s starting left tackle.
Harris had his ups and downs as a rookie but he ended up
playing in 15 games with nine starts and that experience will
give him a leg up on the competition as he heads into his second professional season.

his first NFL game, a preseason contest against the Green Bay
Packers, Ingram pressured reigning NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers
into a hurried throw that was intercepted by one of Ingram’s
teammates. It was a big moment against a quarterback who
threw 45 touchdowns and only six interceptions the entire previous season and it would be a sign of things to come.
For Ingram’s family back in Rockingham, North Carolina, his
success was hardly a surprise. His father, George Melvin
Ingram, Jr., predicted that his infant son would one day play in
the NFL prior to his premature passing from a massive heart
attack in 1998. Raised by his mom, Nancy, and two older sisters, Ingram became a cult hero in Rockingham where the
football star and three-year starter at point guard for the
school’s basketball team earned the nickname “SupaMelvin.”
So gifted was Ingram that he once walked out of a high
school math class so he could go to the school’s gym to break
the hang-clean record in his school clothes. After a brief
warmup, he did so with a lift of 380 pounds, five more than the
previous school record. And prior to the 2006 Shrine Bowl AllStar Game featuring the top high school seniors from North
and South Carolina, Ingram threw the fastest pass during a
pregame carnival, posting the fastest throws with both his left
and right hands. In addition to his athletic feats, Ingram has no
problem doing a standing back-flip, he can spin a football in his
hand, he can dunk one over a crossbar, he can dunk a basketball with ease and he can throw a football more than 70 yards
without taking a step.

The Chargers’ defense suffered a major blow in May when
Ingram, the team’s first-round draft pick in 2012 and a projected
starter at outside linebacker, suffered a torn ACL in his left knee.
Ingram was coming off a rookie campaign in which he
racked up 18 quarterback pressures, tied for second-most on
the squad, along with 12 special teams tackles, which tied for
the team lead. He played in all 16 games, made two starts
and gained valuable experience while working amidst a veteran-laden group of fellow linebackers.
Ingram’s marriage to the Chargers was a match that drew
much excitement as he was still on the board when the Bolts
held the 18th choice in the first round of the 2012 NFL
Draft. There had been knocks about his 30 1/2 inch reach,
short by NFL standards, but Ingram had been a jack-of-alltrades at the University of South Carolina. He posted the
fourth-most sacks in school history and the fifth-most tackles for loss on his way to being named just the third consensus first-team All-America in school history, and the first
since 1984. Ingram was a team captain as a senior and a key
cog on a Gamecocks squad that ranked third in the nation in
total defense and 11th in scoring D. He was also part of a
resurgence at South Carolina that peaked when the Gamecocks won a school-record 11 games in his final season,
including a 30-13 win over Nebraska in the Capital One Bowl
on New Year’s Day.
Once he arrived in San Diego, it didn’t take long to silence the
naysayers about whether his reach would hinder his ability to
make plays on the professional level. During the first quarter of

Outside Linebacker
6-3, 260
11th NFL Season
2nd with Chargers
UFA (Baltimore) - ’12
Alabama
Chiefland HS
Cedar Key, Fla.
Jarret Johnston plays perhaps one of the most unremarkable positions in football. A strong-side linebacker in a 3-4
defense, it’s a position where you’re unlikely to load up the
stat sheets with staggering numbers, but in the defensive
scheme, Johnson is one of the most important players for its
success. And few have ever played the position as well as
Johnson has for 10 NFL seasons.
Johnson came to the Chargers in 2012 as one of the NFL’s
top-rated free agents. Listed as the 14th-best available free
agent by SI.com, he signed a four-year contract with the
Chargers last March.
Johnson brought stability to the strong-side ’backer position for the Chargers, as well as a tremendous work ethic
that was ingrained in him during nine seasons with the 2012
Super Bowl Champion Baltimore Ravens. Johnson served as a
valued mentor for fellow strong-side linebacker, Melvin
Ingram, the Chargers’ top pick in last season’s NFL Draft, and
he finished his first season in San Diego with 47 tackles and
1.5 sacks. But more importantly, Johnson’s consistency and
effort helped the Bolts rank ninth in the NFL in total defense
and sixth against the run.
Johnson’s durability is one of the traits that made him so
attractive to the Chargers. He left Baltimore having played in
a team-record 129-straight regular-season games, including
80 consecutive starts. Nicknamed “J.J.” and “Double-J” by his
former teammates in Baltimore, Johnson epitomized the
term “blue-collar player” during his nine seasons wearing the
Ravens’ purple and black.
Johnson, wife Anna, and daughter, Molly-Caroline, reside
in Niceville, Fla., close to Eglin Air Force Base. Johnson has
long been a supporter of our nation’s armed forces and with
San Diego’s large population of Marines and Navy personnel
along with the team’s outreach to area installations, Johnson
felt right at home.
Johnson is an avid outdoorsman who loves to boat, hunt
and fish. He comes from a family with a long and trying legacy of men who made a living as commercial crabbers and fish-
ermen. Beginning with his great-grandfather, all of the men in
the Johnson family worked on the water, including his father,
Ludwig, who was tragically lost at sea when Jarret was just
two weeks shy of his eighth birthday. Johnson grew up fishing
with his father and his death took a severe emotional toll. It
also left his mother, Aida, alone to take care of Johnson and
his sister, Mary Beth, with no job and no insurance. She
returned to nursing school and made ends meet working a job
as an emergency response technician. The only drawback was
that the job required her to drive nearly 150 miles each day to
and from work. To aid the family after Ludwig’s death, one of
Jarret’s dad’s best friends, Harry Rogers, who had worked on
oil rigs up in Alaska, relocated to Florida to help Aida and provide Johnson with a father figure. Several years later with life
more stable, Aida moved the family to Chiefland, Fla., where
Johnson launched his football career at Chiefland High
School. It set Johnson on a path in which he would become
the first male in the family to not work as a fisherman.
For a long time, Johnson resented the water, but a couple of
years ago while visiting Rogers in Florida as he was fighting a
losing battle with cancer, Johnson stumbled upon an old book
that contained some of his father’s old fishing logs. He discovered that his father not only fished for a living, but worked as
a fishing guide, a fireman, and he even wrote a fishing report
for the local newspaper. This discovery and all that the books
contained helped provide Johnson with some closure and it
rekindled an interest in fishing and being on the water.
Johnson again lives on the water in Niceville where he owns
a 22-foot Pathfinder fishing boat and has aspirations of one
day becoming a commercial fishing guide. He recently purchased a large boat and name it “Hot Spur,” in honor of his
great grandfather, a Danish immigrant whose first fishing boat
went by the same name.
And even though Johnson enjoys hunting and fishing, he
has a Chocolate Labrador Retriever and has been a
spokesperson for the Humane Society and several campaigns
aimed at stopping animal abuse.

Keiser joined the Chargers from Carolina in May. He spent
his first two seasons with the Panthers, joining them as an
undrafted rookie free agent from Stanford in 2011. Keiser
made the final cut as a rookie, and in just his second NFL
game against Detroit, he racked up two sacks against Lions
quarterback Matthew Stafford. He finished his rookie season
on the active roster, adding two more sacks and an interception. In 2012, Keiser played in just four games before being
placed on the “Reserve-Injured” list Nov. 14 due to a left
elbow injury.
At Stanford, Keiser was an honorable mention all-Pac-10
defensive end-outside linebacker. He was also a member of
the Stanford Conservative Society, a group that provided
venues for conservatives, libertarians, and moderates to
meet, mingle, discuss their views, listen to prominent political
leaders, and occasionally work on community service projects
– such as their annual “Christmas Cards for Soldiers” event. A
science, technology and society major with an interest in politics and current events, Keiser served in a leadership capacity,
acting as a vice president and financial officer for the group.

Draft 1 – ’11
Illinois
Hialeah HS
Miami, Fla.
Work ethic is one trait that was drilled into Liuget at an early
age. His father, DeJa, was killed while visiting Corey’s grandmother in Haiti in 1993. It left Lorene to raise Corey and his
four older brothers and sisters as a single parent in Miami’s
housing projects. When her kids were young, Lorene enlisted
their help to make ends meet. She would boil peanuts, make
candy apples, conch fritters and sweet potato pies, which
Corey and his brothers and sisters would sell. It worked and it
taught all of the kids about work ethic and discipline.
Liuget went on to have a standout career at Hialeah High.
Despite hailing from a close-knit family that tops 100 in number and a strong recruiting push from the big in-state schools,
he opted to chart his own path and enroll at the University of
Illinois. After a couple of years in Champaign, Ill. though, Liuget
grew homesick and contemplated returning home after his
sophomore season. Some tough love from his mom persuaded him to stick it out and instead of moping over the situation,
Liuget used it as motivation. He lost 25 pounds between his
sophomore and junior seasons, and feeling re-invigorated, had
a career year for the Fighting Illini in 2010. Liuget then chose
to leave school a year early and apply for the NFL Draft. The
Chargers loved the toughness, tenacity and relentless
approach to the game that he showed and made
him their first-ever first-round pick from Illinois.
Liuget appreciates living in San Diego, a city
with a strong military history, as his two older
sisters, Ideidre and Latronika, both serve our
country in the Army.
This year, Liuget took a vacation to the Dominican Republic and the 6-2, 300-pounder learned to surf and scuba dive.

Corey Liuget made tremendous strides in his second NFL
season in 2012. He assembled a campaign that earned him
the team’s defensive player of the year award, but many
thought his season should have ended with a trip to Honolulu to represent the AFC in the Pro Bowl.
The source of Liuget’s breakout season actually traced back
to the end of his rookie year. The team’s first-round pick in the
2011 NFL Draft, Liuget had to grow up in a hurry as the NFL
Lockout wiped out what would have been his first offseason.
Instead of working out with teammates and studying with
coaches, Liuget was forced to go it alone. Then when the lockout ended and the season rolled around, injuries hammered
the Chargers’ defensive line and the young rookie was pressed
into immediate duty. Liuget ended up playing in 15 games with
13 starts. By season’s end though, his weight had ballooned to
327 pounds, due in large part to an extended visit from his
mom, Lorene, and her home cooking. Rather than continuing
to pack on pounds, Liuget made a decision to travel back to
Florida where he could train at his alma mater, Hialeah High
School in Miami, with former coaches Gary Sanchez, Alex Terry
and Steve Smith. The move paid dividends as Liuget lowered
his weight to 300 pounds and it set the wheels in motion for
his breakthrough season. Liuget went on to lead San Diego’s
defensive line in sacks (7), tackles (61), tackles for loss (15) and
passes defensed (9) in 2012, and his nine passes defensed
were second in the NFL among defensive linemen behind
Houston’s J.J. Watt’s 15. Liuget’s improved conditioning also
contributed to a strong finish to the season as he tallied five
sacks in the team’s last six games, including a career-high two
in the Chargers’ Dec. 23 win over the New York Jets.

4th NFL Season
4th with Chargers
Ryan Mathews, the ninth-ranked rushing leader in franchise history, has recovered from two broken collarbones and
he has his sights set on big goals for 2013.
Mathews’ 2012 season featured its ups and downs as it
was marred by the two fluke injuries. He had reported to
camp bulked up and in outstanding shape, having trained
hard in the team’s offseason program. He was looking forward to big things in his third NFL season, but on the third
play of the Chargers’ first preseason game, Mathews suffered a fractured right collarbone. The injury caused him to
miss the rest of the preseason and the first two weeks of the
regular season. Mathews went on to play in 12 games, starting nine, but in the second quarter of the Chargers’ Dec. 16
game against Carolina, Mathews fractured his left collarbone
and his 2012 season came to an end.
Mathews made a significant ascent from year one to year
two of his NFL career. The first-round pick in 2010 racked up
more than 1,500 yards in 2011, capping the year with an
invitation to play in the Pro Bowl, along with a nod as the
team’s offensive player of the year. Mathews rushed for
1,091 yards and added 455 as a pass-catcher to become just
the 14th player in team history to top 1,500 total yards from
scrimmage. He was originally tabbed a second-alternate for
the Pro Bowl, but when two players ahead of him pulled out
of the game, his invitation to Hawaii arrived. It was a deserving honor for a player who ranked seventh in the NFL in
scrimmage yards, 10th in rushing yards and seventh in yards
per carry. Mathews really found his legs late in the 2011 season, rushing for over 100 yards in three-straight games. During that same stretch, he put together a string of fivestraight games in which he had at least one run of 20 yards
or longer. Only two other players in franchise history,
Natrone Means and Paul Lowe, had similar streaks.
Mathews’ path to the NFL was a difficult one. He was
raised by a single mother, Tricia, who gave birth when she was
just 16. With her own mother battling a drug addiction, Tricia
turned to relatives to find a place to live and raise Ryan. Unfortunately, she ran out of options and ultimately settled on the
backseat of a 1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. Their story is
both heartbreaking and inspiring. After several months of living in the car, bathing and washing Ryan’s clothes at a public
park and feeding him from a Riverside, Calif. soup kitchen, Tricia found a stable home with her grandmother, Glenna, in
nearby Tehachapi.
With a roof over her head, Tricia found work while her
grandmother looked after young Ryan. Tricia worked up to
three jobs a day to save money and support her son. After
years of saving and living with Ryan’s grandmother, Tricia had
saved enough money to move them to Bakersfield, where
Ryan enrolled at West High School. It was there that Tricia
landed a well-paying job, but one of the drawbacks was that
it included extensive travel. At the time, the Mathews household had grown by one as Ryan’s best friend, Dante, had
moved in with them to escape a home rife with drug use.
With Tricia away working, Ryan and Dante often had the
apartment to themselves and as a result, Ryan’s academics
began a steady slide.
Draft 1 – ’10

Things became particularly bad following a 235-yard, sixtouchdown performance by Mathews in the league championship game his junior year. With a D-average and on the
verge of being ineligible for his senior year, Mathews was challenged by both his mother and Fresno State Head Coach Pat
Hill, who had heavily recruited the young back. It was a crossroads for the budding star. His mother’s plea carried the most
weight as she reminded him of the sacrifices she made to raise
him and it had a profound effect. Mathews fulfilled a promise
to buckle down in school. He maintained his eligibility and proceeded to put together a 3,396-yard, 44-touchdown senior
season that had coaches calling from across the country.
Despite the attention, Mathews stayed true to his commitment to Coach Hill. A classic downhill runner with a blend of
power and speed, Mathews broke out as a junior at Fresno
State, rushing for a school-record and NCAA-leading 1,808
yards and 19 touchdowns. He tallied 17 runs of at least 20
yards and enjoyed some of his best days against the nation’s
top defenses, including a 234-yard, three-touchdown performance against Boise State. Mathews became the only player in
the nation to rush for more than 100 yards against three Top25 teams in 2009, doing so against No. 5 Cincinnati, No. 6
Boise St. and No. 14 Wisconsin.
Eager to make amends for his mother’s sacrifices and his
own misdeeds, Mathews applied for early entry to the 2010
NFL Draft. Ironically, one of his childhood heroes was LaDainian Tomlinson and Mathews secretly hoped to be drafted by
the Chargers. Unbeknownst, the Chargers were so smitten
with Mathews that they traded up 16 spots to select him
with the 12th overall pick in the first round. And coincidentally, he became the first running back selected by the Chargers
in the first round since Tomlinson in 2001.
Mathews and his mom now oversee the Trish and Ryan
Mathews Door of Hope Chest Foundation. They have partnered with the Salvation Army and assist homeless women
and children transition to independent living. Mathews serves as a spokesperson for
the Chargers-Kaiser Permanente Bolts to
the Q, a 5k run whose proceeds go toward the Salvation
Army Door of Hope Chest.
Mathews is also working with Shock Doctor, a company
that specializes in football protection products. Mathews
serves as an ambassador and product development advisor.
In his free time, Mathews is a big video gamer. One of his
favorite games is World of Warcraft. Last January, Mathews
received an invitation to visit Blizzard Entertainment’s headquarters in Irvine, Calif. to tour the facilities and meet the
game’s development team.
In addition to his passion for video games, Mathews enjoys
spending time with his two dogs, Goose and Maverick, and
watching Quentin Tarantino films. A freakishly talented
wakeboarder, Mathews also likes to spend time on the water
at the wheel of his MasterCraft ski boat.

7th NFL Season
2nd with Chargers
UFA (Kansas City) - ’12
Alabama
Tuscaloosa County HS
Northport, Ala.
Tough and dependable, Le’Ron McClain gave the Chargers a
little bit of everything after signing a three-year contract in
2012. A two-time All-Pro, McClain helped pave the way for a
1,461-yard season from the team’s running backs.
In six NFL seasons, the Alabama native has missed only one
game during his career due to injury and he hasn’t had a fumble in the last four seasons (2009-12). McClain carried only
14 times last season but he has proven he can shoulder a bigger load, having rushed for career highs of 902 yards and 10
touchdowns for Baltimore in 2008.
McClain maintains close ties to his native state and in 2011
when an EF4 tornado touched down in Tuscaloosa, he
became one of the area’s leading philanthropists.
McClain has been an active community participant since
entering the NFL. In 2007, he created the Learning Minds
Foundation, which emphasizes smart work, self-discipline,
focus, teamwork and respect. One element of the Foundation is an All-Star Football Camp that he hosts annually in his
hometown of Northport. In 2009, McClain served as a
spokesperson for KaBOOM!, a nonprofit that aims to provide
accessible playgrounds for children across America. In recognition of his efforts in the community, the Baltimore Orioles
invited McClain to throw out the first pitch before a game
against the Texas Rangers in April 2009.
McClain is also the CEO for I.E. Entertainment, a production
company that specializes in hosting charity events. And he’s
the creator and host of the “Beyond the Jersey,” a reality
show about the budding NFL superstar.
In 2012, McClain returned to school at the University of
Alabama to complete his classwork in Human Environmental
Services. He received his diploma, walking with classmates
during graduation ceremonies in May.
McClain has a daughter named Alex. His hobbies include
basketball, fishing, movies, reading and shopping. His
younger brother, Ronday is a starting running back at Concordia (Ala.) College. He’ll be a senior in 2013.

ROBERT MEACHEM
UFA (New Orleans) - ’12
Tennessee
Washington HS
Tulsa, Okla.
Robert Meachem is looking forward to 2013. He came to
San Diego in 2012 from New Orleans, where he was a firstround pick in 2007 and a Super Bowl champion with the
Saints following the 2009 season. He has an impressive
resume that includes 155 career catches, 2,476 yards (16.0
avg.) and 25 touchdowns.
Meachem was raised in Tulsa, Okla., where he owns an 8.5acre farm that his grandfather, Leon, passed down to Robert
when he was born. Meachem learned to ride horses and rope
calves before he turned six and it provided a safe haven from
Tulsa’s notoriously violent streets. Meachem’s dad, Robert, was
an accomplished calf roper himself and they traveled to rodeos
in California, Nevada, Texas and Louisiana. Meachem’s very first
horse was named “Little Man.”
Meachem’s other love was basketball. When his father built
a regulation-height basket on their farm, Meachem would
shoot baskets from the back of his horse. As an eighth grader,
he led his AAU team to a national title and in the ninth grade, he
faced a team that featured LeBron James and dunked over the
Miami Heat star early in the contest. His success on the hardwood continued as he led Tulsa’s Booker T. Washington High
School to back-to-back state titles following the 2001 and ’02
seasons. Meachem still plays basketball during
the offseason and he has a vast collection of
more than 100 pairs of Air Jordan sneakers.
Football, however, was Meachem’s ticket to success. A
Parade All-America as a prep, he blossomed into a collegiate
All-American at Tennessee and opted to leave school after his
junior season.
Meachem has a spiritual side. It comes from his late sister,
Tammie, who was 12 years older and helped raise him as a
child. She taught him about tough love and helped him
develop into a young man. Tammie suffered from severe
asthma and a non-related skin disease and passed when
Meachem was just in seventh grade.
Meachem and his wife, Shea, have three daughters, Adrianna, Ryli and Harlan. The family has been very active in the community, hosting Christmas toy drives in New Orleans while also
running the Follow Your Dreams Foundation, whose mission is to help youth
get involved in community activities
and to help provide them with avenues to participate in sports,
music lessons and cultural activities. Meachem awards college
scholarships and he hosts a football camp in Tulsa that is only
open to kids who participate in his Read 60 Program, a literacy
program that encourages young people ages 8-18 to take 60
minutes each day to read.
One of Meachem’s distant cousins is former Chargers wide
receiver and kick returner, Eric Metcalf.
His hobbies include traveling and going to the movies.

2012: Took over at right guard for injured Louis Vasquez Nov.
18 at Denver...injured thumb Dec. 2 vs. Cincinnati... placed on

Molk, who was a three-time Athlete of the Year by the
National Strength and Conditioning Association, drew raves
at the ’12 NFL Combine after posting the most bench-press
reps among centers at 225 pounds (41).
Molk is a special talent who plays football and
lives life with a never-say-die attitude. It’s a
mantra that came from losing his mom, Gail, to
breast cancer when he was just in the seventh
grade. She had battled cancer for 12 years and
in its final stages it had reached her brain.
Before her passing though, Molk scored a touchdown during
the final game she ever saw him play and after crossing the
goal line, he ran right from the end zone to her seat above the
field and presented her with the ball. Today that same ball still
sits in the living room of the Molk family home in Lemont, Ill.

was spent on special teams, Molk gained valuable experience working with Pro Bowl center Nick Hardwick both on
the practice field and in meetings.
Molk joined the Chargers from the University of Michigan
where he won the 2011 Rimington Award as the nation’s
best center. He was a finalist for the Rimington Award in
2010, a consensus first-team All-America in ’11 and a firstteam All-Big Ten pick his final two seasons in Ann Arbor.
When Molk did win the Rimington Award, he became only
the second Wolverines player to win the award and he was
the school’s first outright winner.
At Michigan, Molk became a starter during his redshirt
freshman year and he didn’t miss a start until his final collegiate game. During warmups for the 2012 Sugar Bowl, Molk
felt a pop in his foot and coaches opted to sit the fifth-year
senior. As he watched the offense struggle on the first series
due in part to a couple of errant snaps, Molk put himself into

Draft 2B - ’11
Michigan
Venice HS
Los Angeles, Calif.
For nearly two years, Jonas Mouton was chomping at the
bit to take the field. He finally got his chance late in 2012 and
played in three of the team’s final five games.
An inside linebacker, Mouton was the second of the team’s
two second-round picks in 2011. A promising training camp
and first preseason though was derailed when a shoulder
injury sent Mouton to the “Reserve-Injured” list. Behind his
teammates in practice and experience, Mouton patiently
waited for his opportunity and he made his long-awaited NFL
debut last December against Cincinnati.
Prior to his being drafted, Mouton was the Big Ten Confer-
ence’s top tackler (117) as a fifth-year senior at Michigan in
2010. He recorded an impressive 264 total tackles as a threeyear starter for the Wolverines and the Los Angeles native was
a second-team All-Big Ten choice in 2010, also receiving the
Wolverines’ Roger Zatkoff Award as the team’s top linebacker.
Mouton came from Venice High School, where he was one
of school’s best-ever players. On the first snap of his firstever high school game, Mouton knocked out a player from
rival Carson High. And in college he was given the nickname
“The Assassin” after several of the Wolverines’ foes met a
similar fate.

NICK NOVAK
Kicker
6-0, 198
6th NFL Season
4th with Chargers
Free Agent - ’12
Maryland
Albemarle HS
Charlottesville, Va.
Again Novak was disappointed at his release, but he continued to train. Then just two days before the Chargers’
fourth game of the 2012 season, Kaeding injured his groin in
practice and within a couple hours, Novak had returned to
Chargers Park, signed a contract and boarded a plane to fly
with the team to Kansas City. Two days later inside Arrowhead Stadium, Novak went 3-for-3 on field goal tries, hitting
from 24, 47 and 45 yards, and he helped the Bolts to a 3720 win and a 3-1 start to the season.
Within weeks of Novak’s re-joining the team, the Chargers
released Kaeding and officially handed him the job. He
responded by going 18-of-20 for the season, including a perfect 18-18 from inside 50 yards. His 90-percent conversion
rate was the third-highest for a season in team history.
Novak also helped the Chargers rank among the league leaders in drive starts following kickoffs. Opponents began their
drives at the 20.4-yard line, third best in the NFL, as 22 of his
62 kickoffs went for touchbacks.
Novak is one of the team’s most active community participants. He regularly visits area schools to speak on important
topics, including bullying. He’s hosted free kicking clinics. In
2011, he lent his name and his right leg to
the American Cancer Society in honor of a
family friend, Annie Arth, who died of
ovarian and breast cancer in 2005, Novak
helped raise more than $7,500 for ACS, contributing $100 for
every made field goal, a total that was matched by both the
Chargers and his agent. Last season, Novak steered his financial contributions toward the Chloe Nichols Foundation, which
provides college scholarships for students involved in creative
arts, while also bringing attention to the serious medical warnings and possible side effects of prescription drugs.
Novak was born in San Diego, which makes his story even
more fascinating. He lived here until he was 13, when his parents relocated to work at the University of Virginia. One of
Novak’s close friends growing up was Kellen Winslow, Jr., son
of the Chargers’ Hall of Fame tight end by the same name.
The two share the same godmother.
Novak went to the University of Maryland after a stellar high
school football and soccer career in Virginia. He was a scholarathlete for the Terrapins and twice beat Philip Rivers and North
Carolina State with late fourth-quarter kicks.
In 2011, Novak participated in the NFL Business Management
and Entrepreneurial Program at the Harvard Business School.
Novak’s mom, Julie, a nurse at the Health Science Center at
the University of Texas-San Antonio, was recently inducted into
the American Academy of Nursing. His dad, Bob, also works in
healthcare as an audiologist, working with wounded veterans.

VETERANS &
RETURNING PLAYERS
The trials and tribulations of Nick Novak’s NFL career are
the kind that would discourage most, but the San Diego
native has an intense desire to succeed and he’s become a
shining star for the Chargers. His dedication and perseverance were rewarded this March when the Chargers signed
the hometown kid to a new four-year contract that will keep
him in San Diego through 2016.
Novak originally linked up with the Chargers in 2010. It was
a chance for a fresh start. In 2009, with no opportunities to
kick for a team and the country mired in a financial crisis,
Novak spent the year at his alma mater, the University of
Maryland, cold-calling alumni looking for donations. Though
he ended up losing a close training camp competition to Nate
Kaeding, the NFL’s most-accurate kicker of all-time, his stint
with the Chargers put him back on football’s radar screen. The
Chargers had been the sixth team Novak had spent time with
after brief stints in Chicago, Dallas, Washington, Arizona and
Kansas City. After the Chargers let him go, Novak caught on
with the Florida Tuskers of the fledgling UFL. It was a positive
career move. He hit 15 of 18 field goals for the Tuskers and
was named the league’s Special Teams MVP. Later that same
season, the Chargers actually attempted to re-sign Novak
after Kaeding suffered a groin injury, but the UFL’s rules and
stipulations prevented the Bolts from doing so. In 2011, a
seventh team—the New York Jets—signed him, but again he
lost a close competition, this time to veteran Nick Folk.
Disappointed, Novak returned to San Diego to live and
train. He happened to be having lunch with former NFL kicker Michael Husted the day of the Chargers’ 2011 season
opener against Minnesota when Kaeding injured his knee on
the game’s opening kickoff. Just days later, Novak got the
call he long waited for. The Chargers called and wanted to
sign him as the team’s replacement for Kaeding.
Novak went on to enjoy a storybook season for the Chargers. A career 63.3-percent field goal kicker prior to 2011, he
made his first 12 field goals for the Bolts, including two in a
three-point win over Kansas City, four in a 10-point win over
Miami and five in a five-point win at Denver that included a
then career-long 51-yarder and a clutch 35 yarder with just 24
seconds left in the fourth quarter. Novak finished the season
making 27 of 34, while setting team records for field goals of
40 (12) and 50 (4) yards or longer.
The 2012 season was a virtual instant replay for Novak.
Healthy, Kaeding returned to the roster and edged out
Novak in another close training camp battle. It was so close in
fact that some thought Novak might have won the job after
hitting a game-winning 45-yard field goal as time expired in
the team’s third preseason game at Minnesota.

Ohrnberger’s reputation for comedy and
off-color humor dates back to his college days
at Penn State. He has become somewhat of a
cult figure on twitter for his off-color tweets
and is followed by more than 26,000 fans on
the social media site @ohrnberger. While at Penn State, Ohrnberger once impersonated a teammate during a media conference call and he performed a live stand-up comedy routine at
the Hollywood Improv during team activities leading up to the
Nittany Lions appearance in the 2009 Rose Bowl.

Cardinal, to a one-year deal in March.
The 6-2, 300-pounder from Penn State has played in 18

The Chargers claimed former New Orleans Saints cornerback Johnny Patrick off waivers in late February.
A third-round pick of the Saints in 2011, Patrick played in
nine games as a rookie and 14 games last season.
The 24-year-old Patrick is a native of DeLand, Florida.
Besides football, he played basketball and ran track as a prep,
posting the district’s fastest times in the 100 and 200 meter
sprints. He signed with the University of Louisville as a wide
receiver, but after a slow start to his college career, he
switched to cornerback and in his first start as a true freshman against North Carolina State, Patrick recorded an interception against the Wolfpack.
Patrick spent the remainder of his Louisville career on
defense, earning first-team All-Big East honors as a senior. He
went on to finish his career with 171 tackles, 22 passes
defensed, nine interceptions and two blocked field goals. More
importantly, he earned his degree in justice administration,
becoming his family’s first college graduate. Patrick also continued his track and field career at Louisville, competing as a
sprinter during his freshman and sophomore seasons.
Patrick credits a lot of his success in life to his father, Johnnie, who basically raised him as a single parent.
In his free time, Patrick enjoys fishing, bowling, watching
movies and playing video games.

Nashua, N.H.
If the Chargers handed out a rookie of the year award in
2012, it likely would have gone to Kendall Reyes, the team’s
second-round pick in the 2012 NFL Draft. The defensive lineman from the University of Connecticut and tiny Nashua
North High School in New Hampshire exceeded expectations
in his first professional season.
Reyes led the Chargers’ defensive line with 19 quarterback
pressures and 15 quarterback hits, and he finished the year
third on the team with 5.5 sacks and nine tackles for loss. He
recorded his first two NFL sacks against future Hall of Fame
quarterback Peyton Manning and on Dec. 23 during a road
win against the New York Jets, racked up 3.5 sacks, the most
by a Chargers rookie in 26 years. Reyes closed out his initial
campaign by earning All-Rookie honors from ESPN.com.
To those in Reyes’ hometown, his success came as little surprise. As a prep, however, Reyes was a 220-pound wide receiver
and not the 300-pound defensive end that he morphed into as
a pro. In high school, he scored the first touchdown in his
school’s history on an 85-yard kickoff return. He also excelled on
the hardwood, starting at power forward for the school’s bas-
ketball team and he was one of state’s premier track and field
performers. It led him to Connecticut where Reyes added 80
pounds to his wide receiver’s frame and became an All-Big East
defensive end who is so athletic that he can complete a running
backflip. And when the Chargers drafted him with the 49th
overall pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, Reyes became Nashua North
High School’s first NFL draft pick and the first player from
Nashua to be drafted since the Cincinnati Bengals selected tackle Herb Webster in the fifth round of the 1988 NFL Draft.
Reyes still spends quite a bit
of time in Nashua during the
offseason. In March, the Boys
and Girls Club of Greater Nashua inducted him into its Hall of
Fame. Reyes spent much of his time as a youth at the Club,
where he sharpened his athletic and academic skills. Now he
works with the Club to help develop initiatives for today’s
youth. A former class president at Nashua North High, Reyes
also spends time at his alma mater talking to student-athletes about education and being good community citizens.

VETERANS &

When free agency dawned in March 2013, the Chargers
wasted little time in bolstering their offensive line with the
signing of a veteran player who can line up at either guard
spot. The Chargers got just that player in Rinehart, who will
play for his former position coaches in Buffalo: offensive line
coaches Joe D’Alessandris and Andrew Dees.
Rinehart was limited to seven games and two starts for the
Bills in 2012 due to an ankle injury that landed him on the
“Reserve-Injured” list, but in 2011 he played in all 16 games,
making eight starts at right guard and four at left guard. During that ’11 season, Buffalo’s offensive line allowed a leaguelow 23 sacks (third-fewest in team history) and the team’s 4.9
rush average was the league’s fifth-best and tops in the AFC.
Coming out of college at Northern Iowa, Rinehart was one

PHILIP RIVERS
VETERANS &
RETURNING PLAYERS
Quarterback
6-5, 228
10th NFL Season
10th with Chargers
The most accurate and proficient quarterback in franchise
history, Philip Rivers is looking forward to playing for new
Head Coach Mike McCoy, Offensive Coordinator Ken
Whisenhunt and Quarterbacks Coach Frank Reich in 2013. It
will be his 10th season with the San Diego Chargers and his
eighth as the team’s starting quarterback.
A four-time Pro Bowl pick and a four-time team MVP,
Rivers is the Chargers’ franchise leader in completion percentage (63.6) and passer rating (94.5). He threw for 3,606
yards and 26 touchdowns in 2012, extending his teamrecord streaks of 3,500-yard passing seasons and 25 touchdown seasons to five. Only five quarterbacks in NFL history
can claim five or more consecutive seasons with at least 25
touchdown passes, including Peyton Manning (1998-2010),
Brett Favre (1994-98), Dan Marino (1984-88), Drew Brees
(2006-12) and Aaron Rodgers (2008-12). Rivers also passed
John Hadl’s career yardage total during the season to
become the second-most prolific passer in team history.
Rivers enters the 2013 season with 27,891 career passing
yards, 189 touchdowns and a 94.5 career passer rating. As he
nears 30,000 yards and 200 touchdowns, only 34 quarterbacks
in NFL history have thrown for more than 30,000 yards, only 33
have thrown more than 200 touchdown passes and his passer
rating ranks sixth in NFL history among quarterbacks with at
least 1,500 attempts.
In seven seasons as the team’s starting quarterback, Rivers
has led the Chargers to four AFC West titles, three secondplace finishes, a record of 70-42 (.625) as a starter (regularseason), a 30-12 (.714) mark in AFC West games and a 40-16
(.714) ledger at Qualcomm Stadium.
Rivers’ knack for strong finishes came to the forefront again
in 2012 as he led the Chargers to December road wins over
the Pittsburgh Steelers and New York Jets. The NFL’s secondhighest rated passer in December/January (98.6) with a 61-to19 touchdown-to-interception ratio, including eight touchdowns and only one interception in 2012, Rivers improved his
record in those months to 29-5. Only Green Bay’s Aaron
Rodgers has a better Dec./Jan. passer rating than Rivers
(105.9). Rivers also maintained his position as one of the NFL’s
top quarterbacks for the second half of the season. His 96.7
passer rating in Weeks 9-16 is third all-time and his record
after Nov. 1 is 45-17 (.726).
Besides his wife Tiffany and the couples’ six children (four
girls and two boys), Rivers main devotion has been geared
toward helping to find permanent, loving homes for foster
kids. In 2011, he was named one of three finalists for the
prestigious Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award for his
work with the Rivers of Hope Foundation, an endeavor he and
Tiffany oversaw from 2010-12 to help unwanted, abandoned
and orphaned children. The Foundation raised more than
$1,000,000 for the cause through football camps, a 5K Fun
Run and personal contributions from Rivers. The Foundation
also supported the San Pasqual Academy, a residential education campus designed specifically for foster teens.
Rivers originally came to the Chargers in 2004 in a blockbuster trade with the New York Giants. Less than an hour
after the Bolts selected Eli Manning with the No. 1 pick in the
’04 NFL Draft, Manning was on his way to the Big Apple in
exchange for Rivers and a slew of draft picks. Rivers spent the

majority of his first two years on the sidelines behind Drew
Brees, taking the reigns in 2006. His first campaign was memorable as Rivers was voted to the Pro Bowl after leading the
Chargers to a team-record 14 wins, including 10-straight to
close out the season. The Chargers finished undefeated at
home for the first time in team history and the ’06 squad
scored a team-record 492 points. During the season, Rivers
became the first quarterback in NFL history to rally a team
from 17-point deficits in consecutive weeks. During those
two wins at Cincinnati and Denver, Rivers led 19-straight scoring drives that ended in touchdowns, a team record and the
fifth-longest streak in NFL history. Rivers finished the year as
the NFL leader in passer rating during the fourth quarter
(116.6) and the third and fourth quarters combined (99.3).
In Rivers’ second season as a starter (2007), he led the
Chargers to the AFC Championship Game. The Chargers took
an eight-game win streak into the title game and Rivers’
toughness, both mental and physical, was put on full display in
the final weeks of the regular season and the playoffs. During
a December victory at Tennessee, Rivers had to leave the
game after spraining his knee in the first half. He returned in
the second half and led the Chargers to a come-from-behind
victory in overtime. He continued to play and fought through
the final month of the season in severe pain. A different knee
injury sent him to the sideline during the Bolts’ Divisional Playoff game in Indianapolis and after backup Billy Volek led the
Chargers to an improbable win over the Colts, Rivers had
arthroscopic surgery to repair a torn ACL on Monday and just
six days later he started and took every snap on a frigid day in
the AFC Championship Game at New England.
In 2008, Rivers threw a team record 34 touchdown passes,
tied with Brees for most in the NFL. He recorded his first
4,000-yard season led the league with a passer rating of 105.5,
also a team record, while joining Brees as the only Chargers
quarterbacks to post a season rating of 100.0 or higher. Rivers
posted the NFL’s second-highest passer rating on third downs
(110.7) and in the fourth quarter (111.7), throwing an NFL-best
15 touchdown passes on third down while leading the Chargers to an NFL-best 152 points in the fourth quarter. He logged
six 300-yard games, the most since Fouts had seven in 1985,
including back-to-back games, something not done by a Chargers quarterback since 1991. And Rivers capped off 2008 with a
sensational December, leading the Chargers to the playoffs

straight set by Fouts during the 1979-80 seasons. Amidst that
streak was a pair of four-TD efforts in consecutive games
against Houston and Denver, something that only Fouts (1985)
and Brees (2004) had previously done for the Chargers. Eleven
different players caught touchdown passes from Rivers in 2010,
most in team history for a non-strike season.
The 2011 season saw Rivers complete a team-record 366
passes and threw for 4,624 yards. He joined Dan Marino
(1980-81), Warren Moon (1990-91), Manning (2009-10) and
Brees (2010-11) as the only players in NFL history with backto-back 4,500-yard passing seasons. And he joined Manning
(1999-04 and 2006-10) and Brees (2006-11) as the only
quarterbacks with at least four-straight 4,000-yard seasons.
Demonstrating great peripheral vision and field awareness,
four players had at least 50 catches for the Chargers in 2011,
something that had only been done two other times in team
history (1984 and ’05). Late in the season, Rivers assembled a
career-long string of 170 passes without an interception, easily surpassing his previous best of 143.
Rivers grew up in Decatur, Alabama. His dad, Steve, a former
linebacker at Mississippi State, was the head football coach at
Decatur High School and Philip was a water boy for the team.
Shortly before Philip was set to enroll at Decatur, Steve took
the head coaching job at nearby Athens HS and Philip followed. He played linebacker as a sophomore and moved to
quarterback as a junior. After graduation, he enrolled at North
Carolina State where he led the Wolfpack to four bowl games
and a 34-17 record, including 3-1 in bowl games. A five-time
MVP in Bowl games, including the 2004 Senior Bowl, Rivers is
still the Wolfpack’s all-time leader for career passing yards
(13,484), attempts (1,710), completions (1,087), touchdowns
(95), completion percentage (63.6%), and 300 (19) and 400yard games (seven). His passing yardage total still ranks seventh all-time among Division-I quarterbacks.
The latest Rivers prodigy, Philip’s younger brother, Stephen, is
a redshirt sophomore quarterback at LSU. He wears the same
No. 17 that Philip wears in San Diego.

with a 4-0 mark to improve his career record in December to
14-0. Rivers completed 80 of 121 (.661) for 1,054 yards, 11
touchdowns and just one interception. His passer rating for the
month, a lofty 120.3, was second in the NFL.
The 2009 season saw Rivers selected to the Chargers’ 50th
Anniversary All-Time Team. He threw for 4,254 yards, tossed
28 touchdown passes and posted a rating of 104.4. He was
one of only five QBs in ’09 to pass for more than 4,000 yards,
throw 25 or more touchdowns and record a season passer rating higher than 100.0. Four times — tied with Brett Favre for
most in the NFL — Rivers posted a single-game passer rating of
130.0 or better. During an 11-game win streak to close out the
regular season, Rivers completed 69.0% of his passes and
posted a rating of 112.0. He threw 21 touchdown passes and
only six interceptions and his cumulative passer rating during
those 11 weeks was the highest in the NFL.
In 2010, Rivers threw for a career-high and NFL-leading 4,710
yards. It was the 10th-most yards for a single season in NFL history and third-most in team history. He posted a career-high six
300-yard games, including a team-record 455-yard performance in Seattle. The 4,000-yard season was his third-straight,
tying Fouts for the most in team history. By the midpoint of the
’10 season, Rivers had thrown for 2,649 yards, an NFL record for
the first eight games of a season, breaking yet another mark
which Fouts (2,580) had set in 1982. Rivers completed an NFLleading 66 passes of at least 20 yards, 12 of which went for
touchdowns, second-most in the NFL. Rivers ranked second in
the NFL in passer rating (101.8), capping a 2008-10 stretch in
which he was the only quarterback in the league to post a season passer rating over 100 each season. He joined Steve Young
and Peyton Manning as the only passers ever to post a rating of
100.0-or-higher for three straight years. Rivers’ rating was bolstered team single-season record 66.0% completion percentage.
Rivers also threw 30 touchdown passes to become the first
quarterback in team history with 25 or more in three-straight
seasons. It included a team-record stretch of 23 straight games
with a touchdown pass, surpassing the previous mark of 20-

EDDIE ROYAL
VETERANS &
RETURNING PLAYERS
Wide Receiver-Kick Returner
5-10, 185
6th NFL Season
2nd with Chargers
UFA (Denver) - ’12
Virginia Tech
Westfield HS
Chantilly, Va.
Eddie Royal will be reunited in 2013 with new Chargers
Head Coach Mike McCoy, his former offensive coordinator
in Denver.
Royal joined the Chargers as a free agent in 2012, ready to
contribute as a slot receiver while handling the team’s punt
return responsibilities. But a series of setbacks hampered the
beginning of his career in San Diego. Royal suffered a groin
injury during the first day of training camp and shortly thereafter, his mom fell ill and he found himself making several
trips home to Virginia to be by her side.
Despite the slow start in San Diego, Royal finished the year
strong and he’s confident that a healthy season awaits and
that he will have an opportunity to display his game-changing
talents for Chargers fans in 2013.
Compactly built at 5-10 and 185 pounds, Royal opened eyes
at the NFL Combine in 2008 when he bench-pressed 225
pounds 24 times, most among all receivers. The Broncos made
him a second round pick that year and he immediately let his
presence be felt, racking up nine catches for 146 yards and a
touchdown in his NFL debut against the Oakland Raiders.
When the ’08 season concluded, Royal earned All-Rookie honors from both Pro Football Weekly and the Professional Football Writers of America, as well as The Sporting News after a
season in which he posted the second-most catches by an NFL
rookie, totaling 91 catches for 980 yards and five touchdowns.
Royal also set Broncos rookie records in all three categories, he
led all NFL rookies in those categories, and he became the
league’s first player since the NFL merger in 1970 to record his
team’s longest run, reception, kickoff return and punt return in
the same season.
Royal’s sister, Capt. Christina Royal, is a graduate of the Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets and she is currently
a special agent in the United States Air Force’s
Office of Special Investigations. She was the
first-ever female regimental commander and the first-ever
African-American regimental commander for the Corps of
Cadets, where she was in charge of all the cadets at the
school. Royal’s brother, Chris, played defensive back at Marshall University from 2002-05 and he later played in the Arena
Football and AF2 Leagues. In 2007, Chris was the 2007 Spalding Rookie of the Year for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Pioneers
of AF2. Currently, he is a graduate assistant coach at Marshall.
Royal enjoys boxing as a means of staying in shape for the
rigors of football. He also enjoys bowling, shooting pool,
playing golf and basketball, and going to the movies.

Guard-Tackle
6-5, 312
2nd NFL Season
3rd with Chargers
Free Agent - ’12
Michigan
Bellevue HS
Bellevue, Wash.
A former sixth-round draft pick, Schilling is back for a thirdseason with the Bolts after re-joining the team late in the
2012 season.
As a rookie in 2011, Schilling began his career on the practice squad, however, late in the season with injuries mounting
on the offensive line, he was signed to the active roster. The
former honorable mention All-Big Ten choice from Michigan
started two games at guard in late-November, including his
first-ever start at historic Soldier Field.
Last season Schilling was waived by the Bolts at the end of
training camp, but he kept active and stayed in shape. Then in
December when injuries again took their toll on the line, the
Bolts dialed Schilling’s number and he returned to play in two
of the team’s final four games.
Schilling was a four-year starter at Michigan. He played both right tackle and left
guard and was a three-time winner of the
Hugh R. Rader Jr. Memorial Award as the Wolverines’ top offensive lineman. Schilling redshirted as a true freshman in 2006 and
then went on to start 49 games over the next four seasons.
Schilling’s girlfriend, Katie, played soccer at Michigan and is
a graduate of the University’s law school.
Schilling enjoys golf, movies and listening to music.

MIKE SCIFRES
Punter
6-2, 215
11th NFL Season
11th with Chargers
Draft 5 - ’03
Western Illinois
Destrehan HS
Destrehan, La.
touchbacks in 51 punts (9.8%) for the entire season. He landed
19 of 51 (37.3%) inside the 20. Among players with 40-or-more
punts, only two allowed fewer than Scifres’ 146 return yards,
and only five teams had more than 15 punt return yards against
the Chargers all season.
Scifres’ outstanding season carried into the playoffs where
he enjoyed a record-breaking night in an AFC Wild Card Playoff win over the Colts. He landed all six of his punts inside the
20, the highest number and percentage of punts ever landed
inside the 20 during a playoff game, and averaged a playoffrecord 51.7 net yards per punt as the Colts managed just six
punt return yards for the entire game. The Colts were forced
to start drives at their own 10, 19, 3, 7, 9 and 1-yard lines following punts and his last punt may have been his best as it
rolled out of bounds at the one-yard line and set the stage for
the Chargers to make a late fourth-quarter comeback.
The 2011 season was another that turned out to be memorable for Scifres. Just days before the regular season began,
the team signed him to a five-year contract extension that
will run through the 2016 season. When he put pen to paper
though, little did Scifres realize that within a few days, his
workload would also include kickoffs, field goals and point
after tries. That happened in the ’11 season opener against
Minnesota after Nate Kaeding suffered a season-ending knee
injury on the opening kickoff of the season. Scifres, who on
paper always had been the team’s backup kicker but had
never actually been called upon to do so, coolly responded by
hitting three extra points and a game-tying 40-yard field goal
early in the fourth quarter en route to a 24-17 victory. It was
his first made field goal in a live game since his sophomore
year in college when he kicked a 56-yard game-winner in
overtime against Northern Iowa for a conference title.
Beyond his heroics in Week 1, Scifres posted some eyepopping numbers in 2011. He averaged 47.5 yards per punt
and fell just three attempts shy of qualifying for the team’s
single-season record (min. 50). Scifres punted 47 times in ’11,
he finished the year ranked sixth in the NFL in gross punting
average and had only two touchbacks, tying his career low.
A native of Destrehan, La., one of Scifres’ prep teammates
was Baltimore Ravens’ safety Ed Reed. When the two were
high school teammates, Reed was actually the superior
punter and as a result, Scifres was relegated to kickoffs, field
goals and extra points. The two have remained good friends
and today look back and laugh at their high school exploits.
Scifres’ hobbies include golf, weightlifting and Pilates. He
and his wife, Stacie, have twin daughters Berkeley and
Bristyn, and a son, Brodyn.

Mike Scifres (SIGH-fres) boomed his way into the Chargers’
record books in 2012. Already the team’s record-holder for
career punting average (45.3), Scifres was voted the team’s
Special Teams Player of the Year last season after setting a
new team record with an average of 48.3 yards per punt, a
mark that shattered the previous high of 46.7, which he set
back in 2010. And thanks to the Chargers’ outstanding coverage units, Scifres posted a 40.6-yard net average in 2012,
second in the franchise’s 53-year history.
Scifres also maintained his grip as the NFL’s most accurate
punter of all time. In 2012, he dropped 30 of 81 punts inside
the 20 (37.0%) and heads into 2013 as the most accurate of
all-time among punters with at least 500 career attempts,
landing 227 of 573 (39.6%) inside the 20.
Scifres was drafted by the Chargers in 2003 at the recommendation of Kyle Smith, the son of former Chargers General
Manager A.J. Smith. As a freshman at Youngstown State,
Smith had returned punts against Scifres, who played for
Missouri Valley Conference foe, Western Illinois. He spent his
first season learning behind Chargers Hall of Fame punter
Darren Bennett and then took over full-time punting duties
in 2004. Since then, Scifres has become a member of the
Chargers’ 50th Anniversary All-Time Team, a six-time Pro
Bowl alternate (2004-09) and a two-time Chargers Special
Teams Player of the Year. To put his career into historical context, Scifres has punted 573 times and among punters with
at least that many attempts, his gross average (45.3) ranks
fourth and his net average (38.5) ranks fifth. Complete punting statistics that include opponent returns and touchbacks
only date to 1976, but since those statistics have been kept,
Scifres’ 244 returns against are the second-fewest and his
52 touchbacks are the third-fewest.
Scifres, who has punted in eight playoff games during his
career, enjoyed his breakout moment during a 2007 divisional
playoff win in Indianapolis that sent the Chargers to the AFC
Championship Game in New England. He set a team postseason record against the Colts by averaging 59.0 yards per punt,
including a postseason team-record 66-yarder with the Bolts
backed up at their own 14-yard line and only 1:42 left in the
fourth quarter. Kicking from his own goal line, the Colts fielded
Scifres’ punt all the way back at their own 20, and his effort lit
a fire on the Chargers’ sideline. San Diego’s defense then
promptly went out and ended the Colts’ season on downs four
plays later, sending the Chargers on to the title game.
Scifres’ upswing continued into 2008 as he set a team record
and ranked third in the league with a 40.9-yard net average. He
and the Chargers’ coverage teams allowed zero or negative punt
return yards in seven of 16 games and Scifres had only five

D.J. SMITH
Waivers (Green Bay) - ’13
Appalachian State
Independence HS
Charlotte, N.C.
In late April, the Chargers added a promising young
defender to their linebacking corps when they claimed Smith
off waivers from the Green Bay Packers.
A sixth-round pick by the Packers in 2011, Smith was the only
member of their rookie class to appear in all 16 games. Last season Smith moved into the Packers’ starting lineup for the first six
games of the season after starter Desmond Bishop suffered a
hamstring injury in the 2012 preseason opener in San Diego.
Smith collected 42 tackles and two sacks in the Packers’ first six
games, but he suffered a serious knee injury Week 6 at Houston
and spent the remainder of the season on “Reserve-Injured.”
Considered undersized by many at 5-foot-11, Smith was
overlooked by most Division I schools coming out of high
school. It was a shock for the four-year letterwinner and
three-year starter who never lost a game during his prep
career and helped lead Charlotte, North Carolina’s Independence High School to four straight 4A state titles. Smith
ended up enrolling at Appalachian State where he went on to
become the NCAA Football College Subdivision’s active leader
with 525 career tackles. As a freshman in 2007, Smith played
for the Mountaineers’ squad that upset the nationally-ranked
Michigan Wolverines at Michigan Stadium.
Away from the gridiron, Smith enjoys spending time with
his family, relaxing, and watching movies and sitcoms. He is
extremely close with his mom, Pamela, and the two speak
before every one of D.J.’s games.

10th NFL Season
1st with Chargers
The Chargers added a wealth of experience to their roster in
May when they agreed to a contract with former Pittsburgh
Steelers offensive tackle Max Starks. The 6-8 Starks is expected to compete with 6-9 King Dunlap for the starting left tackle job in one of the tallest competitions in recent memory.
Starks spent his first nine NFL seasons with the Steelers,
including 2012 when he started all 16 games at left tackle. It
was an impressive accomplishment, considering that Starks
had suffered a torn ACL during the Steelers’ Wild Card Playoff
loss in Denver at the end of the 2011 season, yet he bounced
back and played every offensive snap for the Steelers in 2012.
It wasn’t the first time that Starks had overcome serious
injury. In 2010, Starks suffered a neck injury which required a
surgical procedure that included a cervical fusion. It was an
injury that kept him sidelined until October of the 2011 season, but Starks made it back to the field and started the final
12 games for the Steelers. Toward the end of their season, his
teammates voted him their winner of the Ed Block Courage
Award for his perseverance in overcoming the injury.
A native of Orlando, Florida and a former Florida Gator, the
Steelers selected Starks in the third round of the 2004 NFL
Draft (75th overall). He won two Super Bowl rings with Pittsburgh, starting at right tackle in Super Bowl XL after the
2005 season and starting at left tackle in Super Bowl XLIII at
the end of the 2008 season. Starks has experience at both
tackle positions while starting 96 of 123 regular-season
games played and eight of his 10 career playoff games.
Starks is a second-generation NFL player. His biological
father, Ross Browner, was one of six relatives who played in
the NFL. Browner was a first-round pick of the Cincinnati
Bengals in 1978 (No. 3 overall). He played defensive end for
the Bengals for nine seasons (1978-86) before concluding
his career with the Green Bay Packers in 1987. Browner
played collegiately at Notre Dame where he was a two-time
All-America (1976, ’77) and the winner of both the Lombardi
and Maxwell Awards.
Incredibly, Starks grew up without knowing that his biological father had been an NFL star. He grew up in Orlando, Florida
with his mother and stepfather, Elleanor and Max Starks.
Starks’ mom had lived in Cincinnati for a time and she was in a
relationship with Browner while he was playing for the Bengals.
Unbeknownst to him, she had become pregnant while they
dated and gave birth to Max Starks IV, just two weeks before
Browner and the Bengals faced the San Francisco 49ers in
Super Bowl XVI in January 1982. For 17 years, Elleanor kept
this secret to herself. Only in 1999 when Starks had grown into
a massive 17-year-old did she reach out to Browner to tell him
that he had a son he had no idea existed. Part of her reasoning
for reaching out when she did was that Starks had become
one of the nation’s most-highly-recruited high school players
and one of the schools recruiting him was the University of
Southern California (USC), where two of Ross’ brothers, Joey
and Keith, had both played. Starks’ mom feared that questions
would be raised during his recruiting visit to USC, so in a preemptive strike, she sent a letter to Browner and included several photos of Max. It took a little time for the initial shock to
wear off from both father and son, but shortly after receiving
the letter from Elleanor, Starks and Browner met face-to-face
for the first time at a football camp in Georgia.

As the years passed, father and son rekindled
their relationship and in a bit of irony, when Starks
played in his first Super Bowl for the Steelers after
the ’05 season, he did so in the same city (Detroit)
that his father had played his first Super Bowl just
weeks after Starks was born. When this happened, Browner
and Starks became just the eighth father-son combo in NFL
history to both play in a Super Bowl.
The term gentle giant applies because Starks is one of the
NFL’s most compassionate players when it comes to community service. In 2004, he started the Max Starks Charitable
Fund, an outreach program which focuses on literacy and
education. As a child growing up in Orlando, Starks spent
many hours with his peers at the Boys and Girls Clubs of
Orlando. By the time he was in the eighth grade, Starks had
joined Future Florida Educators of America, a group in which
members performed community service, including helping to
clean up neighborhoods and serving Thanksgiving and Christmas meals to citizens living in Orlando’s homeless shelters.
And when he was in the ninth grade, Starks was working as a
high school tutor, assisting elementary school children with
their classwork. As a senior, he was one of eight tutors invited to attend a national service learning conference and he
returned to Orlando and started a program where tutors visited underprivileged elementary schools to help students prepare for standardized tests. The outreach continued during
his collegiate years at Florida, where he visited Gainesvillearea schools to promote reading and learning, and he worked
with Kids Against Drugs, Alcohol and Tobacco. In honor of all
of his work in and around his native Orlando, Starks was
given a key to the city in 2006, along with having his No. 77
retired at Lake Highland Prep.
Starks has hosted a number events that are linked to his
foundation. His signature event is a football camp that he
hosts each June at Lake Highland Prep. It’s a free camp that’s
open to both boys and girls ages 7-14. In addition to football
skills, the camp stresses literacy, education and the importance
of maintaining a positive image both on and off the field.
Breast cancer is another cause that is near-and-dear to Starks.
His mom is a breast cancer survivor and he holds an
annual Thanksgiving food drive that helps raise awareness for the disease. In 2009, the Steelers named him
their Walter Payton Man of the Year for his efforts
with both breast cancer and his foundation.
One last major cause that Starks has lent support to is the
fight against human trafficking. He sits on the board of directors for Cents of Relief, a nonprofit that works to prevent
human trafficking and provide healthcare for its victims, particularly women who’ve been forced into prostitution and
their children.
Besides the various charities and critical causes that Starks
is associated with, he’s also found time to make a USO Tour
and visit the USS Theodore Roosevelt at sea.
One of the reasons that Starks has been so devoted to giving back is because so many reached out to him when he was
a youngster. One of those who lent a helping
hand was former Orlando Magic center
Shaquille O’Neal. As an eighth grader, Starks
worked as a ball boy for the local NBA team
forming Arts Center in Orlando. Starks actually appeared in
the Nutcracker ballet as a fourth-grader and he later sang
bass in the chorus at Lake Highland Prep High School.
Starks is married to Dr. Tiffany Calloway-Starks. The couple
has a daughter, Waverly. They also have a Rhodesian Ridgeback named Leonidas.
When he was younger, Starks was given
the nickname, “The Undertaker.” Growing up,
his family owned a funeral home in Central
Florida and it wasn’t uncommon for Starks to
drive to school in the company hearse, a Navy blue ’64 Cadillac.

and word had slipped out that Starks was having a hard time
finding athletic shoes that would fit his size 19 foot. Having
caught wind of the story, O’Neal came to the rescue and
passed along several pairs of shoes to Starks.
One of Starks’ non-football passions is music, especially
classical music. A percussionist himself, Starks sat on the
board of directors for the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra.
He also assisted the Symphony by narrating youth programs
for some of the city’s elementary school children. He was
exposed to music at a young age. His mother was a fan of

Kansas City, Kan.
A fourth-round pick in 2010, Darrell Stuckey has become
one of the Chargers’ top special teams performers.
The 2012 season was no exception as for the second year
in a row, Stuckey tied for the team lead with 12 special teams
stops. He did so despite ending the season on the “ReserveInjured” list and not playing in the team’s final three contests.
His total of 24 special teams tackles over the past two seasons is tied for eighth-most in the NFL, and all but one of the
players with more have played in the full 32 games, while
Stuckey played in just 26.
One of the team’s fastest players, Stuckey is an all-around
talent on special teams. In addition to his tackle totals in 2012,
Stuckey led the NFL with six punts downed inside the 20,
while also forcing a team-high two fumbles, recovering an
onside kick and tallying six tackles inside the 20.
Stuckey is one of the Chargers’ most-active
players in the community. As a student at
Kansas University, he was not only one of the
school’s most-talented athletes, but also one of
it’s most popular and academically gifted. Raised by a single
mother, Michele Foulks, Stuckey graduated in four years and
was named to the Athletic Director’s Honor Roll. He was also
one of the Jayhawks’ most active participants in student government and community service. Stuckey enjoys delivering
motivational speeches and regularly volunteers to lend a helping hand with community projects in San Diego.
Stuckey’s 295 career tackles at Kansas were second-most
all time among Jayhawks defensive backs. Only former NFL
great Leroy Irvin (347) had more. As a junior, Stuckey tallied 93
tackles and became the Jayhawks’ first non-linebacker to lead
the team in tackles since 2000.
Stuckey has three brothers and three sisters. His younger
sister, Denae, played basketball at Iowa State.
His hobbies include painting, drawing and collecting DVD
movies.
In April 2011, Stuckey married longtime girlfriend, Lacie
Reed. The couple recently celebrated the birth of their first
child. Son Jayton James was born in Feb. 2013.

from cornerback to strong safety. His willingness to sacrifice for the team made him one of
LSU’s most popular players. Before his senior
season, head coach Les Miles called Taylor into his office and
informed the team captain that he’d been chosen to wear
the Tigers’ coveted No. 18 jersey. In a tradition that was born
in 2003, the LSU coaching staff picks one player who exemplifies character and leadership to wear the No. 18 jersey
each season. Taylor also had another honor bestowed upon
him by teammates as he was selected to stand in the rally circle before each game to fire up the team. Both gestures were
tremendous honors for the Louisiana native.
Brandon’s brother, Curtis, played on LSU’s National Championship team in 2007 and was drafted by the San Francisco

A 2010 fifth-round draft pick out of North Carolina, the
time is now for the former Tar Heel Cam Thomas as he enters
2013 as the most likely candidate to begin the season as the
team’s starting defensive tackle.
Thomas’ stock has steadily risen the past two seasons. In
2011, he played in all 16 games and led the defensive line
with four sacks; he finished second with six tackles for loss,
10 quarterback hits and nine pressures, and he tied for
fourth with 26 tackles. Last season, Thomas again played in
all 16 games, including three late season starts, and he was

third among the team’s defensive linemen in tackles (30),
pressures (6) and quarterback hits (9).
Thomas is a mountain of a man with an infectious personality who goes by the nickname “Baby Zilla.” As a collegian at
North Carolina, he helped engineer a turnaround that culminated in his senior season when the Tar Heels paced the ACC
and ranked 10th in the nation in run defense.
Thomas enjoys spending time with his daughter, bonding
with his teammates, and listening to his favorite R&B singer,
Rihanna.

The Chargers knew Brandon Taylor was a special player,
so it was no surprise when the team engineered a trade
with Miami to move up five spots in the third round to
select the former LSU Tiger with the 73rd overall pick of the
2012 NFL Draft.
Taylor’s rookie season in San Diego was spent primarily
learning on the practice field and in the classroom. He waited
patiently for an opportunity to play on Sundays and that
chance arose late in the season when he appeared in four
games, two of which the Chargers won. Taylor also earned his
first NFL start on Dec. 23 against the New York Jets, but the
rookie suffered a severe knee injury in the game and he finished the year on the “Reserve-Injured” list.
Taylor grew up in Franklinton, La., the second-youngest of
Curtis and Annette Taylor’s nine children. He was groomed
and toughened by two older brothers, Curtis and Jhyryn,
both of whom played for the Tigers. Taylor charted his own

Johnnie Troutman gets a rare second opportunity to be a
rookie in 2013. The Chargers’ fifth-round pick in the 2012
NFL Draft from Penn State, Troutman had surgery for a pectoral injury prior to the draft and spent the entire 2012 season on the “Reserve-Non-Football Injury” list. Healed, Troutman is expected to vie for playing time in 2013.
The reason the Chargers were able to overlook Troutman’s
injury and still select him in the fifth round was the fact that
he started his last three seasons at left guard for the Nittany

Draft 2 - ’07
Utah
Alta Loma HS
Alta Loma, Calif.
Weddle was drafted in the second round by the Chargers
in 2007 after the team made a trade with Chicago to move
up 25 spots in the round to select him. As a rookie, he was
part of a secondary that led the NFL with 30 interceptions.
Weddle moved into the starting lineup in 2008 and finished
the year second on the team in tackles with a career-high
135, just one behind the team leader. He also set a team
record with an 86-yard fumble return for a touchdown
against the Atlanta Falcons.
Weddle’s all-around game improved each year and in
2010, he received his first all-pro honors when he was selected to the AP’s All-Pro second team after the Chargers finished the season ranked first in the NFL in pass defense.
Weddle helped turn around a pass defense that just two seasons earlier ranked second-to-last in the league. Within
months, the Chargers rewarded Weddle with a new five-year
contract and it kicked off the best season of his young career
in 2011. He helped clinch two early-season back-to-back
wins with late fourth-quarter interceptions, becoming just
the third Chargers defender to do so in the previous 20 years.
It was the beginning of a Pro Bowl season in which Weddle
tied for the NFL lead with a career-high seven picks. And it
wasn’t just Pro Bowl accolades that Weddle earned, as a slew
of All-Pro accolades followed, accompanied by his selection
as the Chargers’ Defensive Player of the Year. Weddle even
intercepted two passes in the Pro Bowl, one of which resulted in a touchdown after a lateral, while also breaking up a
game-high three passes and tying for second with five tackles en route to a 59-41 win by the AFC.
Weddle’s incredible rise through the NFL was recently
chronicled in the book “No Excuses, No Regrets: The Eric
Weddle Story,” which was written by Trent Toone
and published by Shadow Mountain. The book,
which tells Weddle’s story of overcoming adversity and accomplishing impossible dreams, hit
bookshelves in May. Weddle’s former coach at
the University of Utah, Kyle Wittingham, wrote the foreword.

Eric Weddle is the Chargers’ Most Valuable Player, voted as
such by teammates at the end of the 2012 season. Weddle
garnered the team’s top honor after leading the squad with
111 tackles. He also tacked on first-team All-Pro honors
from CBSSports.com and Pro Football Weekly & the Professional Football Writers of America, and second-team All-Pro
honors from the Associated Press.
Weddle has become one of the NFL’s top game-changers.
His 10 interceptions over the last two seasons (2011-12) tied
for third-most in the NFL and among his 16-career picks,
three have been returned for touchdowns, including a 23yard scoring return against Peyton Manning and the Denver
Broncos last November. Weddle has three career interceptions against Manning, two of which have been returned for
touchdowns, while the third prevented a touchdown during a
win over Manning’s Colts in the divisional playoffs at the end
of Weddle’s rookie season. Weddle also has been a thorn in
the side for the Kansas City Chiefs, recording four interceptions against them the last two seasons.
A Southern California native, Weddle grew up in Alta Loma,
115 miles north of San Diego. He and his wife, Chanel, his
former high school sweetheart, married in La Jolla in July
2005. The couple has three children, daughters, Brooklyn
Marie and Silver Jean, and son, Gaige. Weddle is a gym-rat
and an avid golfer. He plays basketball and golf several times
a week and is a single-digit handicap on the links. He also
enjoys bowling and movie nights with the family. Eric and
Chanel wed before his junior season at Utah. They lived near
Utah State in Ogden, UT, where Chanel went to school and
played soccer for the Aggies, while Eric commuted nearly an
hour each way to Salt Lake City where the University of Utah
is located for school and football.
Weddle was a special education major at Utah who helped
tutor students with learning disabilities. As a professional, he has remained active in the community supporting a number of worthy causes, including breast cancer as his grandmother is a two-time
survivor of the disease.

After a two-year sabbatical in the Pacific Northwest, Charlie Whitehurst returned to San Diego in 2012.
Whitehurst originally joined the Chargers in 2006 as a thirdround pick after an All-ACC career at Clemson. He backed up
Philip Rivers for four seasons (2006-09) until the Chargers
dealt him to Seattle in 2010 for a second round choice in the
’10 NFL Draft, and an additional third-round choice in the
2011 draft. Whitehurst spent two seasons in Seattle and he
helped the Seahawks to an NFC West title in 2010 by leading
them to a Week 17 victory over the St. Louis Rams in a nationally-televised NBC Sunday Night Football contest.
An honor roll student throughout his college career at Clemson, Whitehurst earned his degree in marketing in December

RETURNING PLAYERS
Long Snapper
6-1, 237
4th NFL Season
4th with Chargers
Cincinnati
Elder HS
Cincinnati, Ohio
It was a rather remarkable turn of events that led Mike
Windt to become the Chargers’ long snapper as a rookie in
2010. The first domino fell when David Binn, the team’s alltime leader for career games played, was felled by a hamstring
injury. With Binn on the “Reserve-Injured” list, the Chargers
went through three veterans, James Dearth, Ryan Neill and
Ethan Albright, yet none panned out. Dearth and Neill were
both sidelined by injuries, while Albright was cut, opening the
door for Windt. Signing the Cincinnati native proved to be a
fortuitous move as Windt proved to be a capable snapper for
punts and field goals, and less than a year later, the Chargers
severed ties with Binn, who ended his tenure in San Diego
having appeared in an amazing 256 career games.
While Windt still has a long ways to go to match the 17 seasons Binn logged in San Diego, he’s off to a good start. In
March, the Bolts locked Windt up for the long haul, inking him
to a new four-year deal before the start of free agency.
Windt has demonstrated pin-point accuracy on snaps. Last
season, he had a hand in Mike Scifres setting a new team
record for single-season punting average, while two seasons
ago, he helped Nick Novak set a franchise mark for single
season field goals of 40 and 50 yards or longer.
Windt is engaged to Kate Fredrikson, an oncology nurse at
Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego. The couple plans to
wed in April 2014.
Windt’s hobbies include golf, stand-up paddleboarding and spending time with his English Bulldog, Hemingway. He also has a taste for fine
wines and music. Two of his favorite musicians are
Michael Buble’ and Frank Sinatra.

Running Back

North Platte, Neb.
Jets. Woodhead suffered a knee injury in training camp and
spent his entire rookie year on the “Reserve-Injured” list. He
returned in 2009 and played sparingly for the Jets, but in
2010 he was released after the first game of the season. It
didn’t take long for the rival New England Patriots to scoop up
the Nebraska native and his career quickly hit an upswing.
Woodhead played in 14 games for the Patriots and averaged
a team-record 5.64 yards per carry for a squad that reached
the AFC Divisional Playoffs. A year later, the jack-of-all-trades
helped the Patriots to a 13-3 regular season that culminated
with a trip to face the New York Giants in Super Bowl XLVI.
And in 2012, he scored a career-high seven touchdowns in
helping New England to a 12-4 mark and a trip to the AFC
Championship Game.
Woodhead seemed destined to play football from early
childhood. As a child, he drew numbers on the backs of his
cowboys and Indians and he held make believe games in his
bedroom. Looking for a bigger field, he even once drew a
football field in the middle of the family’s living room with a
green marker. By fourth grade, he became a ball boy at North
Platte High, where his dad, Mark, was an assistant coach.
Their family is extremely close. Woodhead was homeschooled until the ninth grade and his parents still live in North
Platte, where Mark is now a school teacher and high school
girls basketball coach. Both of his parents also attended
Chadron State and Mark played wide receiver for the Eagles in
the late 1970s. Danny and Ben roomed together at Chadron
and they later served as the best men in each other’s weddings. All of the men in the Woodhead family go by the nickname “Woody,” except for Mark, who goes by “Big Woody.”
They all enjoy playing golf and Danny, a scratch player, is the
family’s best. Mom, Annette, is extremely devout and to this
day she still sends Danny scriptures prior to each of his games.
Woodhead and his wife, Stacia, have a daughter, Gia Grace.

VETERANS &
RETURNING PLAYERS
In March, when the Chargers signed running back Danny
Woodhead, they landed one of the most popular athletes
ever to come out of the state of Nebraska.
A native of tiny North Platte, Neb. (pop. 25,000), 300 miles
north of Denver, Woodhead first came onto the national
scene at Chadron State College after a record-setting career
at North Platte High. Nebraska’s 2003 Player of the Year,
Woodhead was overlooked by the state’s
biggest schools, including the University of
Nebraska, so he followed his older brother,
Ben, to Chadron State where he became the
first-ever athlete in school history to receive a full-ride scholarship. Despite his diminutive 5-8, 200-pound frame, Woodhead set a number of records for the Eagles, and he became a
two-time winner of the Harlon Hill Award, Division II’s equivalent of the Heisman Trophy. Woodhead left the Chadron, Neb.
campus as the NCAA’s all-time leading rusher (7,962 yards)
and he tied the national mark with 109 touchdowns. Though
Chadron State never won a national championship during
Woodhead’s career, the Eagles went 35-11 during his tenure,
including back-to-back undefeated seasons and Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference titles his junior and senior years. Their
only loss each of those two seasons came in the NCAA Division II quarterfinals where both times they were defeated by
Northwest Missouri State. Still in March 2013, Woodhead
was named to the Division II 40th-Anniversary Tribute Team.
Despite a record-breaking college career, Woodhead did
not receive an invitation to participate at the 2008 NFL Combine. Instead he took part in a Pro Day on the University of
Nebraska campus and posted a 40-yard dash time that
would’ve been among the fastest at the Combine. Still, when
the 2008 NFL Draft rolled around, all seven rounds came and
went without Woodhead hearing his name called and he
ended up signing a free agent contract with the New York

Draft 3B – ’11
Southern California
Colton HS
Colton, Calif.
A native of Colton, Calif., east of Los Angeles, the Chargers
were Wright’s hometown team and they were the team he
was hopeful would draft him. He even brought a Chargers
hat with him to his 2011 draft party just in case the call
came, which it did after Wright’s strong finish to an up-anddown collegiate career at nearby USC.
Wright works closely with the Junior Diabetes Foundation.
The daughter of his former football coach
from Colton High School has the disease
and it inspired Wright to help. In September
2011, he was invited to throw out the first pitch at a San
Diego Padres game as an introduction to his partnership with
the foundation.

RETURNING PLAYERS
After two years of waiting patiently, the 2013 season
offers a tremendous opportunity for Shareece Wright, who
now finds himself in the thick of competition to become one
of the Chargers’ starting cornerbacks.
Wright had appeared on track for a big year in 2012 after
appearing in just seven games as a rookie. He was coming
off a solid preseason, one that included a performance
against Dallas in which he had a 73-yard interception
return, a sack and forced fumble, and two passes defensed.
But on the first play of the Chargers’ 2012 opener at Oakland, Wright hurt his foot while making a special teams
tackle inside the 20 and it sent him to the sidelines for the
rest of the night and for the next six games. Once healed,
Wright played in each of the Chargers’ last nine games, and
he finished the year with 14 tackles on defense and seven
on special teams.

UFA (Tennessee) – ’13
Georgia
Lincoln County HS
Lincolnton, Ga.
In April, the Chargers signed Jarius Wynn, a former Green
Bay Packers and Tennessee Titans defensive end.
Wynn began his career in Green Bay in 2009 as a sixthround pick from the University of Georgia. He played three
seasons in Green Bay, recording 46 tackles and 4.5 sacks.
Wynn spent the 2012 season in Tennessee where he played in
seven games, totaling 12 tackles and a pair of sacks.
Wynn’s cousin is former NFL running back Garrison Hearst,
who was the third overall pick of the Arizona Cardinals in the
1993 NFL Draft. Hearst also played at the University of
Georgia. Another cousin, Shedrick Wynn, was a defensive
lineman for the Bulldogs from 2000-02.
Wynn was born in Augusta, Georgia, home of the Masters
Golf Tournament and he was raised in nearby Lincolnton. His
father, Jesse, owns his own construction company and Jarius
helped his father build houses during his summer breaks in
high school and college.
Wynn has two sons and a daughter. His
youngest son, Jarius, Jr. was born on Feb. 6,
2011, just hours before Wynn took the field for
the Packers for their win over the Pittsburgh
Steelers in Super Bowl XLV. Wynn spent the
night prior to the game in the hospital with his
wife, Martavia, and then played on special teams for the Packers after Jarius was born. Coincidentally, his daughter, Josiah,
was born on Jan. 27, 2013, the day of the 2013 Pro Bowl.
Wynn’s hobbies include fishing, playing pool and swimming.

Alabama
Foley HS
Foley, Ala.
The San Diego Chargers used their first-round pick (No. 11
overall) in the 2013 NFL Draft to select former University of
Alabama tackle D.J. Fluker.
A cornerstone for the two-time defending BCS Champion
Crimson Tide, Fluker started all 27 games at right tackle the
last two seasons. A second-team Associated Press All- America and first-team All-Southeastern Conference pick as a
junior in 2012, Fluker graded out at 98.6% on his blocking
assignments, surrendered only four sacks, and was flagged
just two times as Alabama finished the season 13-1 and 7-1
in the SEC. Among his 2012 statistics, Fluker totaled 90
knockdowns, 22 pancakes and 15 touchdown-resulting
blocks for an offense that averaged 445.5 yards per game,
31st nationally and fourth in the SEC. The Crimson Tide were
even better on the ground, ranking 16th nationally and second in the SEC with 227.5 rushing yards per game.
Fluker left Alabama with a year of eligibility remaining after
earning his degree in health studies in Dec. 2012. Since he
graduated, Fluker was granted permission to compete in the
2013 Senior Bowl and its week-long practices, which helped
raise his stock heading into April’s draft.
A New Orleans native, Fluker’s family was forced to flee
the Bayou when Hurricane Katrina reared her ugly head in
2005. His family moved to Mobile, Alabama before relocating
to Biloxi, Mississippi and ultimately Foley, Alabama. Fluker
played his sophomore high school season at Mobile’s McGillToolen Catholic High School as a defensive lineman and his
junior year at Biloxi High School. As a senior, he enrolled at
Foley, where the coaching staff converted him into an AllAmerica offensive tackle. Highly sought-after by a number of
major college programs, Fluker chose Alabama over Auburn,
LSU, Oklahoma, Florida, Clemson and Florida State.

STEVE WILLIAMS
Cornerback
5-10, 185
Rookie
Williams’ selection (No. 145 overall) in the fifth round of
the 2013 NFL Draft marked the second-straight former California Golden Bear picked by the Chargers, following the
selection of wide receiver Keenan Allen in the third round.
Williams tossed his hat into the NFL ring after only three
seasons at Cal, including a 2012 junior campaign in which he
earned honorable mention All-Pac-12 and team MVP honors.
His 2012 statistics included career highs in interceptions
(three), total passes defensed (13), tackles (80) and tackles
for loss (seven).
Draft 5 – ’13
California
Skyline HS
Dallas, Tex.
Williams actually caught the eye of Chargers General
Manager Tom Telesco in 2011, when the former Colts Director of Player Personnel had ventured to “The Big Game” in
Palo Alto to scout Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck. Early
in the game, Williams jumped an out route thrown by Luck,
picking off the pass and returning it 45 yards to the Stanford four-yard line. Even though he was just a sophomore,
that play stuck in the back of Telesco’s mind. Luck, meanwhile, went on to be selected by the Colts with the first
overall pick in the 2012 NFL Draft.

school-record 205 passes, for 2,570 yards (third in school history) and 17 touchdowns (seventh). It included a career-high 98
catches for 1,343 yards as a sophomore in 2011.
Allen’s half-brother, Zach Maynard, was his quarterback all
three years at Cal. Maynard had originally enrolled at Buffalo,
but transferred to Cal so that he and Allen could play together. In 2011, the two combined for the longest pass play in
school history when they hooked up on a 90-yard score
against the Washington Huskies.
In addition to his pass-catching totals, Allen averaged 12.0
yards per return as a punt returner and 22.6 yards on kickoffs and he left the Berkeley campus with 3,458 all-purpose
yards in just three seasons.
In the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft, the Chargers
landed former California Golden Bears wide receiver Keenan
Allen, a player widely projected as a first or second-round pick
before a knee injury late in his junior season.
Unbeknownst to many, Allen was a player who had long
been on the radar screen of Chargers General Manager Tom
Telesco. Back in 2011, Telesco had attended Cal’s game
against USC at San Francisco’s AT&T Park and he noted that
Allen really stuck out that night on a field that was loaded
with great players. Allen in fact enjoyed one of the most prolific days of his career that evening against the Trojans, catching a career-best 13 passes for 160 yards.
Allen left school after his junior season having caught a

2012 GAME SUMMARIES
San Diego Chargers 22, Oakland Raiders 14
Monday, September 10, 2012
O.Co. Coliseum (Oakland, CA)
San Diego Chargers 38, Tennessee Titans 10
Sunday, September 16, 2012
Qualcomm Stadium (San Diego, CA)
Special teams was a key component as the Chargers opened the 2012 season with a
22-14 win over the Oakland Raiders on ESPN’s Monday Night Football. The Chargers
kicked five field goals, blocked a punt, forced two other punts to be aborted, and only
allowed the Raiders one kickoff return for a total of six yards. San Diego’s defense
registered three sacks and nine tackles for loss and it kept Oakland out of the end
zone for the first 59:06 of the game.
The Chargers played their 2012 home opener and started off a special afternoon by
retiring jersey No. 55 that was worn for so many years by the late Junior Seau. The
Bolts took the field in special all-white uniforms and soundly beat the Tennessee
Titans, 38-10. The Chargers offense held the ball for 43:39, its highest time of possession tally since 1978, and the Chargers defense held Tennessee to just 1-of-9 on
third downs (11%) while registering six three-and-outs along with a seventh drive that
ended with an interception after just two plays.

2012 IN REVIEW
Atlanta Falcons 27, San Diego Chargers 3
San Diego Chargers 37, Kansas City Chiefs 20
Arrowhead Stadium (Kansas City, MO)
The Chargers suffered their first loss of the 2012 season, falling to the Atlanta Falcons,
27-3 at Qualcomm Stadium. The Bolts committed three costly turnovers and had their
streak of 151-straight games scoring at least one touchdown come to an end.
The Chargers took advantage of six Kansas City turnovers and defeated the Chiefs,
37-20, at Arrowhead Stadium. The Chargers had five takeways in the first half, their
most in a half since Sept. 7, 1997 at New Orleans. The six takeaways were the most in
a game since Sept. 19, 2010 vs. Jacksonville and they led to 24 points against the
Chiefs. It was the Chargers’ most points off turnovers in a game since scoring 28
against the Chiefs Nov. 29, 2009, and the Bolts’ 37 points scored was the most in a
game at Arrowhead Stadium since 1986.

Mercedes-Benz Superdome (New Orleans, LA)
Denver Broncos 35, San Diego Chargers 24
Monday, October 15, 2012
The Chargers took on the New Orleans Saints before a national television audience on
NBC’s Sunday Night Football and lost a heartbreaker, 31-24. The Chargers scored first
and led by 10 late in the third quarter, but the Saints went on a 17-0 run to close out
the game and the Chargers saw their record fall to 3-2. San Diego did have a chance
to tie the game late, but three straight penalties were called during the Chargers’ final
drive, including a pair that wiped out completions of 28 and 23 yards and the drive
ended with a sack-fumble which allowed the Saints to run out the clock for the win.
The Chargers endured one of their most disappointing losses as Denver rallied from a
24-0 halftime deficit to defeat the Chargers, 35-24, before a the 10th-largest home
crowd in team history and a national television audience on ESPN’s Monday Night
Football. The Chargers turned the ball over six times, including three interceptions and
two fumbles in the final 19:56 of the game.

2012 IN REVIEW
Cleveland Browns 7, San Diego Chargers 6
Sunday, October 28, 2012
Cleveland Browns Stadium (Cleveland, OH)
San Diego Chargers 31, Kansas City Chiefs 13
Thursday, November 1, 2012
The Chargers fell below .500 for the first time this season following a 7-6 loss to the
Cleveland Browns on a cold, windy and rainy day at Cleveland Browns Stadium. Neither
team was able to muster much offensively as the temperature at kickoff was 44
degrees with 19 mph winds and a steady rain. Most of the offense came on the ground
where the Browns rushed for 133 yards and the Chargers 117. The difference in the
game was a 26-yard touchdown run by rookie Trent Richardson in the first quarter.
The Chargers capitalized on four Kansas City turnovers and turned back the Chiefs,
31-13, in an NFL Network Thursday Night Football game at Qualcomm Stadium. The
Chargers collected a interception and three fumbles, which led to 17 points and
helped blow open a game that the Chargers led just 10-6 at the half. In two games
against the Chiefs in 2012, the Chargers picked off four passes and recovered six
Chiefs fumbles (10 total takeaways) that resulted in 41 San Diego points.

2013 MEDIA GUIDE
Tampa Bay Buccaneers 34, San Diego Chargers 24
Sunday, November 11, 2012
Raymond James Stadium (Tampa, FL)
Denver Broncos 30, San Diego Chargers 23
Sports Authority Field (Denver, CO)
The Chargers fell to 4-5 as result of a 34-24 loss to the Buccaneers at Raymond
James Stadium. The Chargers outgained Tampa Bay in total yards, 426 to 279, but
made three crucial mistakes with two interceptions, one of which was returned for a
touchdown, and a blocked punt that was returned for another score. The Chargers
scored 21 points in the first half and led 21-17 at the break, but could muster only
three points in the second half as the Buccaneers pulled away for the win.
The Chargers came up short in their bid to move within a game of Denver in the AFC
West, falling to the Broncos, 30-23, before a packed house at Sports Authority Stadium. The game featured big plays on both defense and special teams as San Diego’s
defense returned an interception for a touchdown and recorded a safety, while Denver
blocked a punt and scored one play later. The Chargers scored a late touchdown to get
within seven, but the Broncos recovered an onside kick attempt and ran out the clock
for the victory. With the win, Denver improved to 7-3, while the Chargers fell to 4-6.

2012 IN REVIEW
Baltimore Ravens 16, San Diego Chargers 13 (OT)
Cincinnati Bengals 20, San Diego Chargers 13
Sunday, December 2, 2012
The Chargers dropped their third straight to fall to 4-7 on the heels of a 16-13 overtime loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The Chargers took a 10-point lead late into the
fourth quarter, but Baltimore scored 10 points in the final 4:19, scoring the gametying field goal with no time remaining after converting on a 4th-and-29 that kept
their drive alive. Both teams had two possessions in overtime with the Ravens kicking
a 38-yard game-winning field goal with 1:12 left in the extra session.
The Chargers played another nip-and-tuck game against an AFC North opponent but
fell at home to the Cincinnati Bengals, 20-13. San Diego’s defense forced three
turnovers in the game, including an interception return for touchdown, but the Chargers’ offense was only able to generate six points on two field goals and a late drive
that had a chance to tie the game ended with an interception in the end zone.

San Diego Chargers 34, Pittsburgh Steelers 24
Heinz Field (Pittsburgh, PA)
Carolina Panthers 31, San Diego Chargers 7
The Chargers snapped a four-game losing streak in impressive fashion, defeating the
Pittsburgh Steelers, 34-24, at Heinz Field. The Bolts scored their most-ever points in a
game in the Steel City (34) and won their first-ever regular season game in Pittsburgh,
snapping an 0-14 ledger. The win included a back-breaking 17-play touchdown drive
to start the third quarter that chewed up 9:32 on the game clock, the Chargers
longest touchdown drive in terms of plays since 2004, and their longest in time of
possession since 1997.
The Chargers lost to Carolina, 31-7, as their record fell to 5-9, ensuring the team’s first
non-winning season since 2003. The Panthers jumped out to a 21-0 lead after the
first quarter and took a 24-0 lead into the locker room at halftime. The Chargers
avoided their first shutout since 1999 by converting a turnover late in the third quarter into a touchdown.

Review
The Chargers picked up their second win in a row on the road over an East Coast team
when they defeated the Jets, 27-17, at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. It was a historic day as the Chargers tied the franchise record with 11 sacks against the Jets and
tight end Antonio Gates became the most-prolific pass catcher in franchise history.
The Chargers closed out the 2012 season with a 24-21 win over their arch-rivals, the
Oakland Raiders, on a cold and rainy day in San Diego that also featured a brief hailstorm during pregame warmups. The Chargers opened the game in spectacular fashion, scoring on a 99-yard kickoff return and led the Raiders for the entire afternoon.
The Bolts held a 24-7 lead heading into the fourth quarter when Oakland scored
twice to tighten the contest. The win enabled the Chargers to finish the season in second place in the AFC West and with a 4-2 record in the division.
