Chargers WR Dalevon Campbell gets another shot in the next wave of roster churn

Dalevon Campbell is back on the Los Angeles Chargers radar as part of the organization’s 90-in-90 series, an offseason look at players competing for roles on the roster and practice squad. The appearance matters because it indicates where the team’s attention is drifting at the wide receiver position, especially for players fighting for time behind established starters and recent additions.

According to Yahoo Sports’ profile, Campbell signed with the Chargers in 2025 after earning the opportunity through a tryout. The next step, as the series frames it, is once again working to secure a practice squad spot, a common path for receivers who need a clear opening to translate routes, timing, and special-teams value into regular-season opportunities.

For the Chargers, that type of competition is rarely a one-week sprint. Practice squad spots tend to be determined by day-to-day performance in practice, the ability to absorb the playbook, and how quickly a player can make himself useful in team periods that affect game-week preparation. In that context, bringing Campbell forward in the 90-in-90 feature suggests the staff still sees development potential and workable traits for the next roster cycle.

The broader NFL picture is that the wide receiver room is typically the first place teams look when they want to add speed, versatility, or a different skill set without committing to a long-term bet. Players like Campbell can fit that pattern because the practice squad structure allows coaching staffs to evaluate them across multiple looks while the team settles the core rotation for the upcoming season.

Still, readers should treat the spotlight as a competition marker rather than a guarantee. A 90-in-90 feature is not an official roster decision, and a practice squad outcome depends on everything from training camp performance to how many receivers are kept at the position and how depth shakes out after each phase of offseason work.

What to watch next is whether Campbell can build on his tryout-to-Chargers track record by turning reps into consistent production during the period when teams finalize offseason evaluations. If he continues to show enough to remain on the fringe, the Chargers would have another depth option ready to absorb injuries, earn special-teams snaps, or provide an in-practice benchmark for how the offense wants receivers to run routes and win matchups.
