Chargers 2023 roster review: QB Max Duggan

The 2023 season is just a month away, and with weeks of dead time during the quietest part of the NFL offseason, Chargers Wire is endeavoring to document each of Los Angeles’ players before the start of the team’s training camp.

After putting together a polished resume at TCU, including guiding them to the national title game in 2022, the Chargers drafted Max Duggan in the seventh round of this year’s draft.

The runner-up for last year’s Heisman Trophy, Duggan passed for 3,698 yards and 32 touchdowns in his senior season.

Los Angeles has carried three quarterbacks on the active roster in eight of the ten seasons that Tom Telesco has been the general manager, which is why the Duggan is likely to make the 53-man roster.

Easton Stick will be the backup and while he isn’t going to push him for the spot, Duggan should add value as a scout team quarterback.

Contract (2023):

Contract Value: $3,926,220 ($981,555 APY)

Fully Guaranteed Money: $86,220

Acquired: The Chargers drafted Duggan in the seventh round of this year’s draft (No. 239 overall).

Quote: Telesco on Duggan:

“He’s tall, strong, physical, and fast, which typically aren’t the first four traits you would say about a quarterback. He has played at a high level and has good arm strength. He has a grittiness and toughness that is hard to find.”
