Badgley signed with the Colts as an undrafted free agent in 2018, but never played for the Colts. He signed with the Chargers and has completed 52 of 65 career field goals and 82 of 86 career extra points.

Chargers retain Mike Badgley

Fantasy slant: In his first season as the Chargers' full-time kicker, the returns on Badbgey's performance were mixed at best. Among all kickers with 12 or more games played, he finished 27th in field goal percentage (72.7%). If he hopes to retain the job for 2022, more footballs need to fly between the uprights this season. – Derek Brown
