Chargers' trio back one another off the field too

- BY ANTHONY DE LEON

Special teams, special bond

PUNTER JK Scott (16), long snapper Josh Harris (47) and kicker Cameron Dicker (11). "There's nobody else that I'd rather go out there with," Harris said.

All good things come in threes — including reliability.

Anchored by kicker Cameron Dicker, punter JK Scott and long snapper Josh Harris, the Chargers' specialists have been a bedrock of stability the past three seasons. That steadiness seemed in jeopardy when Scott's contract expired this offseason.

Like a rock band losing its guitarist, it looked as though the group might have played its final tour together. But for Scott — whose bond with Dicker and Harris runs deeper than football—staying in L.A. felt like divine intervention.

“Truly, it was something me and my wife made a decision together from a place of prayer,” Scott said of resigning. “We felt like we were supposed to be here. The relationships that we have here, we just felt like this was the right fit.”

Assembled by special teams coordinator Ryan Ficken, the unit thrives on contrast. Dicker is the lively free spirit. Scott brings a reserved, thoughtful presence. Harris, 36, is the seasoned veteran.
