Joshua Gregory "Josh" Lambo (born November 19, 1990) is an American football kicker for the Los Angeles Chargers of the National Football League (NFL). He was signed by the Chargers as an undrafted free agent in 2015. He played college football at Texas A&M and is a former professional soccer goalkeeper.
Born in Lansing, Michigan, Lambo moved with his family to Chicago, Illinois when he was a small child. He played club soccer for the Chicago Magic before moving to Middleton, Wisconsin in the summer of 2005, where he attended Middleton High School for less than two months before signing a Generation Adidas contract and joining the USA Residency Program in Bradenton, Florida. As a 15-year-old he spent the summer training with Everton F.C. during their US tour in 2006 on the recommendation of US international Tim Howard and was invited to Finch Farm before being offered a professional contract on the proviso that he could secure an EU passport due to his Greek heritage.
Lambo was drafted in the first round (8th overall) of the 2008 MLS SuperDraft by FC Dallas. He played in the MLS Reserve Division, and was a named first team substitute on several occasions, but missed most of the second half of the 2008 season after he broke his jaw in a reserve team game. Lambo never played in an MLS match, but did appear for his team in an international friendly match versus Costa Rica’s CS Herediano in June 2009.
