Report Says Hester Working at WR as well as RB Spots

Word out of San Diego is that rookie Jacob Hester has spent the offseason program not only learning RB and FB duties, but has even seen reps lining up in the slot. It’s not so much a surprise that he’s been featured at both running back and fullback, but the fact that the Chargers are so deep at receiver makes his slot appearances a bit perplexing.

I watched Jacob Hester at LSU. I have no problem understanding why the Bolts want him ready at multiple positions — he is what one may call a blue-collar old-school football player. His speed is surprising, he has great hands, he has a very high football IQ, and when you tell him we need 8 yards or we will have to punt, he will get you 8 yards. At LSU we called him “Money” because when he got the ball we cashed in! And no one ever figured it out until we had the Crystal Ball!
