74 JACQUES CESAIREDefensive End Free Agent - ’036-2, 295 Southern Connecticut State10th NFL SeasonGardner HS10th with ChargersGardner, Mass.Smart and stout are two words that come to mind whendefining defensive end Jacques Cesaire. A one-timeundrafted free agent from tiny Southern ConnecticutState in New Haven, Conn., Cesaire made the most of thatopportunity and built himself an NFL career that nowembarks on its 10th professional season. Cesaire has started66 of 125 career games played and serves as the seniormember of the defensive line.Cesaire was born in Massachusetts, but his parents emigratedto the United State from Haiti. When a 7.0 earthquakerocked the island nation in Jan. 2010, it hit particularlyclose to home. Luckily, no members of the Cesairefamily were harmed in the quake or its aftermath.Jacques is married to the former Jill Murray and the couplehas two children, Viviana and Desmond. Devout Christians,the Cesaires host regular Bible study sessions at theirSan Diego home and they oversee a nonprofit foundationthat benefits the Monarch School for homeless teens.They also contribute to a Chargers program to help feedthe city’s homeless on Thursday nights year-round andthey work with the United Way in Jill’s hometown of Groton,Conn. In 2008, the United Way presented Cesairewith an award for his generous and outstanding work inthe community.One of Cesaire’s closest friends on the team is cornerbackQuentin Jammer, who has established a relationshipwith the San Pasqual Academy, a school that is very similarto the Monarch School. The last several years, Cesaire andJammer have partnered to host a charity bowling eventthat raises funds for the two schools.Last offseason while the NFL was in the midst of thelockout, Cesaire returned to SCSU to finish the necessaryclasswork to earn his degree in liberal studies. He also tookpart in the school’s 2011 commencement ceremonies.VETERANS &RETURNING PLAYERSTRANSACTION HISTORY: Signed with Chargers, May 2,2003…re-signed one-year contract, March 24, 2005, five-yearcontract Feb. 13, 2006 and two-year contract, July 30, 20112011: Season-high four stops in Week 3 win vs. Kansas Citybut left game with knee injury and inactive Weeks 4-5. 2010:season-high six tackles, including one for loss, in Nov. 7 win atHouston...two tackles for loss each vs. Jacksonville Sept. 19,at St. Louis Oct. 17 and Dec. 26 at Cincinnati. 2009: Hit onMatt Cassel Oct. 25 at Kansas City leads to interception byPaul Oliver...Game Ball following Nov. 8 win at New YorkGiants...first sack of season and crucial 2nd and 3rd downtackles near goal-line late in game to hold Giants to field goaland allow for game-winning touchdown drive...inactiveWeeks 1 (calf) and 15-16 (elbow). 2008: Key wedge-blockduring Darren Sproles’ team-record-tying 103-yard kickoffreturn touchdown Week 2 at Denver…Week 10 at Pittsburgh,two 3rd-down sacks before leaving in fourth quarter (knee).2007: Season-high 11 tackles Dec. 9 at Tennessee…firstquartersack in Jan. 6 Wild Card vs. Tennessee. 2006: Tookover Week 1 for injured Igor Olshansky (knee) in first quarterand started Week 2 and Weeks 6-7…third quarter forced fumbleOct. 29 vs. St. Louis recovered by Marlon McCree andreturned 79 yards for touchdown and 21-7 lead…season-hightwo sacks, both on 3rd down, Nov. 5 vs. Cleveland…startedWeeks 9-13 for Luis Castillo (ankle)…led defensive line withnine tackles and two quarterback pressures in 35-27 win atDenver Nov. 19...despite battling flu-like symptoms throughoutDec. 24 game in Seattle, 1.5 sacks and tackle for loss enroute to being selected as Chargers Alumni Player ofWeek…came out of Arizona game Dec. 31 with left kneeinjury and did not return…inactive for playoff game vs. NewEngland. 2005: Closed out 27-14 win at Oakland Oct. 16 withfourth-quarter five-yard sack vs. Kerry Collins…season-highseven tackles Dec. 31 vs. Denver. 2004: Season-high fourtackles at Carolina Oct. 24. 2003: First-career game at DetroitDec. 7...12-yard sack vs. Lions negated by penalty.COLLEGE: All-America by American Football Coaches Associationas senior...Northeast-10 Conference Defensive Linemanof Year…Cactus Bowl All-Star…all-conference first-team asjunior…finished career with 206 tackles, 54 for loss, 21 sacksand four forced fumbles…played at Southern ConnecticutState from 1998-02...history and political science major.PERSONAL: Born in Worcester, Mass.…lettered in football,basketball and track at Gardner (Mass.)
