The Chargers have taken former Baylor safety JT Woods with the No. 79 overall selection in the 2022 NFL draft.
Woods registered 57 tackles, 4.5 tackles for a loss, two passes defended, five interceptions, and a touchdown through 14 game appearances as a senior in 2021.
He recorded 157 tackles, eight tackles for a loss, two sacks, five passes defended, eight interceptions, and a touchdown through his four collegiate seasons.
At the NFL Scouting Combine, the 6-foot-2 and 195-pound Woods had an impressive 40-time of 4.36 seconds and vertical jump of 39.5 inches, some of the best among the defensive backs.
At Baylor, Woods did a little bit of everything, but he was at his best dropping and covering into the deep half of the field.
