As the NFL regular season nears its kickoff, several former Baltimore-area Catholic high school players were battling for spots on pro football rosters. Here’s a look at some of those who honed their skills on the local gridiron worth keeping an eye on this fall:

Baltimore Ravens

Kyle Fuller, 30, cornerback from Virginia Tech and Mount St. Joseph High School. Fuller, in his first season with the Ravens, has played seven years in the NFL with the Bears (six years) and Broncos.

Green Bay Packers

Adrian Amos Jr., 29, free safety from Penn State and Calvert Hall College High School. Amos, in his fourth season with the Packers, has played seven years in the NFL, including his first four with the Bears.

New York Jets

Lawrence Cager, 25, wide receiver from Georgia, Miami (Fla.) and Calvert Hall College High School. Cager played in two games with the Jets as a rookie and one last season with the Cleveland Browns. Cager mad the Jets final 53-man roster, moving to tight end for the regular season.

Deonte Harty, 24, wide receiver and return specialist from Assumption College and Archbishop Curley High School. Harty, who recently changed his name from Harris to honor his stepfather, has played in 36 games for the Saints in three seasons and was named a first-team All-Pro in 2019.

Kansas City Chiefs

Joshua Kaindoh, 23, defensive end from Florida State, Our Lady of Mount Carmel High School and IMG Academy. Kaindoh, who attended Mount Carmel in Essex before transferring to IMG in Florida, played in three games as a rookie for the Chiefs last season after recovering from an injury.

Tennessee Titans

Chance Campbell, 22, linebacker from Maryland, Mississippi and Calvert Hall. Campbell, at 6-foot-3 and 235 pounds, was drafted in the sixth round by the Titans in the 2022 draft.

Julius Chestnut, 21, running back from Sacred Heart University and Archbishop Spalding High School.
