The Chargers decided to go back to the offensive side of the football after drafting cornerback Asante Samuel Jr. in the second round by drafting a player familiar with him wide receiver Josh Palmer from Tennessee.
After finding out he was the newest Chargers selection, Palmer spoke to the media and admitted he hadn t spoken to the Bolts during the process. So was he surprised? I m just so happy because I think anything that would be surprising, but just to go to the Chargers, they re such a great team to play for it, explained Palmer. Just this moment right now, I can t even put into words. I haven t stopped smiling yet.

Overview:
After being overshadowed much of his career by the likes of Jauan Jennings and Marquez Callaway, Palmer was able to put together a solid senior season following their departures. He built upon respectable sophomore and junior campaigns with a 33-475-4 line in 2020 for the Volunteers. The Canadian is a very physical pass-catcher who truly excels in contested catch situations and high-pointing the football. He possesses the speed to take the top off a defense and the frame to go up and get anything thrown his way. On top of that, he takes great pride in blocking on the perimeter while also bringing value on core special teams units. Where Palmer needs to show improvement moving forward is in his footwork and route-running. He plays with a pad level that is too high, which limits his ability to run consistently smooth routes
