The Los Angeles Chargers today elevated wide receiver Dalevon Campbell and safety Marcus Williams from the practice squad for Sunday’s game.
Campbell, who spent the offseason and training camp with the Bolts, saw action in a pair of games early in the season with the Carolina Panthers before being inactive last week for the Chargers as a standard elevation. He capped his collegiate career at South Carolina in 2024 after having spent a pair of years at Nevada (2022-23) and three seasons at Illinois (2019-21), redshirting for the Illini in 2019. In 60 career games, Campbell made 21 starts and totaled 88 catches for 1,471 yards (16.7 avg.) and three touchdowns. He earned honorable mention All-Mountain West recognition in 2023 after hauling in 31 passes for 594 yards (19.2 avg.) and a pair of touchdowns. With the Gamecocks last season, Campbell led the team with a 26.0-yard receiving average.
An eight-year veteran, Williams has been one of the most consistent safeties in the NFL throughout his career since entering as a second-round pick (42nd overall) by New Orleans in the 2017 NFL Draft. He has started 116-of-118 career games, including the postseason, with the Saints and the Baltimore Ravens. Williams was an All-Rookie selection by the Professional Football Writers of America after totaling four interceptions and 71 tackles in 2017. He was a two-time Pro Football Focus second-team All-Pro by Pro Football Focus, earning the recognitions in 2019 and 2021. Over the course of his career, Williams has totaled 469 tackles (344 solo), five tackles for loss, 20 interceptions, 56 passes defensed, four fumble recoveries, a sack and a pick-six. He played 37 games over three seasons (2014-16) at Utah, earning first-team All-Pacific-12 recognition in 2015 and second-team Pro Football Focus All-America honors in 2016. Williams totaled 169 tackles (125 solo), 11 interceptions, eight pass breakups, four forced fumbles and three recoveries for the Utes.
