Day 33 of 90 in 90. Dexter McCoil was a fan favourite last year, so let's take a look at the person behind the player. Player Factfile:
Name: Dexter McCoil
Age: 25
Position: S
College: Tulsa
NFL games played: 16
Games played for the Chargers: 16
Fun fact: Dexter McCoil is the only player on the roster to have experience playing football in Los Angeles - he was briefly a member of the Los Angeles Kiss of the Arena Football League.
Dexter McCoil was born in Metairie, Louisiana, and enjoyed a very successful three years as part of the Lutcher High football team. McCoil was good enough - and big enough at 6’4 - to play both ways, as a TE on offense and an OLB/S on defense. Jarvis Landry was a teammate of McCoil’s, and having two future NFL players on one High School team was too much to handle for most opposing schools, with Lutcher High winning two State Championships in McCoil’s three years there.
(McCoil would also excel in the Long Jump and Triple Jump at High School - to this day, McCoil
