The 2025 East-West Shrine Bowl continued on Monday, marking the third day of the event. It offered a handful of draft prospects that stood out to NFL evaluators.
Here are four that could’ve garnered the attention of the Chargers.
DL Jordan Phillips, Maryland
The Maryland product, who is only 20 years old, has packed a punch (literally) this week. His domination carried over to today. The 320-pounder’s power profile and explosiveness made life difficult for blockers. Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders will be the first player from this all-star game selected, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the next is Phillips.
Jordan Phillips has been making himself some MONEY as a space eating DT
Despite zero sacks in two years at Maryland, he amassed 26 pressures and 31 run stops while only missing 3% of his tackles.

TE Jalin Conyers, Texas Tech
The Chargers must revamp the tight end position by adding capable pass catchers. Conyers was a problem for defenders, consistently getting open with excellent short-area quickness and catching everything thrown at him, showing off his ball skills. For being 6-foot-3 and 263 pounds, Conyers is athletic and moves well. He’s also willing as a blocker.
EDGE Tyler Batty, BYU
The Chargers would benefit from adding some pass-rush juice to the edge defender room. Batty has a great frame at 6-foot-5 and 269 pounds, and he uses it well by generating power to push blockers back. But today, Batty showed some finesse with a nice dip move to get underneath and around a tackle to get into the backfield.
Standout rep here from @BYUfootball DL Tyler Batty. Measured in at 6-5, 269. As you’d expect wins with good power on the edge, but here he shows nice flexibility with the dip under the outside shoulder. Rounding out the profile pic.twitter.com/kEaQg42a6a

OL Thomas Perry, Middlebury
It’s been a trend for a small-school offensive lineman to come to these all-star games and blow it up. This year, Perry is that guy. The Division III product is primarily a guard, but he’s lined up at center, a position he’s only been learning for a month. Perry was a brick wall in 1-on-1s, stymieing defenders with a strong anchor, technique, and athleticism. Perry is currently working with offensive line developer Duke Manyweather.
Been cool to see the quick improvement from D3 Middlebury IOL Thomas Perry. Has stacked better reps each day. Only started training for center about a month ago. Impressive flexibility, strong core, good grip strength
