Chargers UDFA Jacob Spomer impresses during preseason games
Summary

Jacob Spomer, an undrafted center for the Chargers, is making a strong case for a spot on the regular-season roster after impressive performances in the preseason. In two games, he has recorded an 82.6 percent pass-blocking rate against the 49ers and an overall grade of 82.0 against the Texans. Spomer's outstanding play has been bolstered by the season-ending ACL injury to teammate Tyler Biadasz, leading to an increased chance of making the roster. The Chargers are likely to start one rookie on their interior line, with Jake Slaughter set as the starting center.
