Undrafted Center Eyes 2026 Role | California News
Description
From Purdue to Maryland, Josh Kaltenberger built a solid college career as a starting center — even helping Maryland rank third in Big Ten passing offense — but went undrafted in 2025. Undeterred, the LA Chargers signed him to a rookie contract, letting him battle on and off their practice squad. Now, with the 2026 season looming, he’s positioned to be the Chargers’ backup center — the only pure center on the roster — and must prove himself against elite NFL competition to earn a spot on the 53-man roster. His story is a reminder that in pro football, talent alone isn’t enough — grit and opportunity can turn the tide.
