Jim Harbaugh endorses surprise Chargers player making final roster push

In the quest to find big bodies on the boundary for Justin Herbert, the Los Angeles Chargers tried a lot of different things. 

One of the most notable, of course, was the signing of Mike Williams. 

Quietly back in May, though, the Chargers signed Dalevon Campbell after a tryout at rookie camp and he’s used the time since to break into training camp and make some major noise. 

That culminated in the undrafted rookie from South Carolina catching three passes for 62 yards during the preseason game against the Saints, including his catching a two-point conversion. 

"D-Camp, he's been doing that in practice,"Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh said, according to Omar Navarro of the team’s official website. "I don't think any receiver has caught as many go balls as D Camp.”

Campbell still has a long way to go before actually cracking a final roster. But with Williams gone, there’s room for a big body or two who can make those plays down the field situationally to make this type of noise and force the Chargers coaching staff into tougher-than-expected decisions at final cuts.
