The Chargers pretty much made that clear when they selected former Texas A&M punter Drew Kaser in the sixth round of the 2016 NFL Draft. He is the first punter drafted by the Chargers since Scifres was taken in 2004.
Few punters made more of an impact on the game than Scifres. He is the Chargers’ all-time leader with a 45.2-yard career punting average. He was a passionate player who played in 195 games.
