As usual, it was an exciting first week of NFL action, but a relatively quiet one for snappers. After some changes during training camp and pre-season, the long snapping position stabilized.
The Chargers added Rick Lovato to the practice squad and will activate him each week with Josh Harris on injured reserve. Lovato won a tryout battle with Brent Matiscik, Jake McQuaide and Taylor Pepper prior to the start of the regular season.
Three rookie snappers made their NFL debuts yesterday, as Julian Ashby (Patriots), Austin Brinkman (Texans) and William Wagner (Bengals) snapped in their first games.
On the tackle front, Wagner added an assisted tackle in his debut. Jacob Bobenmoyer (Raiders), Andrew DePaola (Vikings) and Scott Daly (Bears) also added solo stops.
