The Los Angeles Chargers are willing to go the extra mile to help their kicker, Cameron Dicker, make it to the Pro Bowl.
With the Pro Bowl voting for this season in Orlando nearing its final week, the Chargers pulled out all the stops to campaign for Dicker’s selection. On Wednesday, the team posted a funny video on their official X account, where Dicker made a pitch to voters in the style of a used-car commercial.
The video included the tagline, “We’ll drive you through the uprights,” and featured appearances by Chargers punter JK Scott (acting as Dicker’s holder), long snapper Josh Harris, and head coach Jim Harbaugh.
The Chargers added a humorous caption, saying, “Seriously, don’t be a d*ck.” Check out the video below.
For the Chargers, who are currently in the AFC playoff hunt with an 8-6 record, their campaign could not have been executed any better. The “don’t be a d*ck, vote for Dicker” line was particularly clever, so much so that they might need to watch out for Krusty the Clown trying to steal it.
The 24-year-old Dicker also has a strong case for being selected based on his performance. He’s having a standout season for the Chargers, ranking second in the NFL among all qualified kickers with an impressive field goal percentage of 93.5% and maintaining a perfect record on kicks under 40 yards (12/12). It also helps that the AFC’s usual Pro Bowl kicker has been having a remarkably poor year.
