## Resource

Josh Kaltenberger, a massive 6’6”, 308-pound center, is quietly poised for breakout potential with the Chargers—despite starting as an undrafted free agent and spending his rookie year on the practice squad. His elite athleticism (a 97.2 relative athletic score) aligns perfectly with the team’s new offensive scheme, designed for mobile linemen. But he’s still raw—scouts say he needs functional strength to dominate against elite defensive tackles. With the Chargers drafting another center, Kaltenberger’s spot is third-string, but with minimal competition expected, he’s got a strong shot to stay on the practice squad and keep developing. His story is a perfect case study for how offensive philosophy shifts can unlock young talent—and why his 2026 path is one to watch.
