A huge part of the offense for the Chargers entering this year will once again be running back Austin Ekeler. Entering his 5th season in the league, Ekeler appears […]

Randy Moss. Antonio Brown. Odell Beckham. While QBs will always hold the spotlight as the biggest names in the NFL, wide receivers often come in right behind them, as the best wideouts often exude both talent and personality. But what about their sidekicks? A great receiver (perhaps with the exception of Calvin Johnson) can only […]

Remember Philip Rivers? Who doesn’t. The former Indianapolis Colts quarterback and long-time Los Angeles (and San Diego) Chargers signal-caller called it a career after the 2020 NFL season, leaving the Colts in a scramble to fill their quarterback position.

Justin Herbert was probably just relaxing at home, minding his own business. Perhaps the Los Angeles Chargers star was fresh off a tiring workout and was ready to catch some shuteye when he suddenly caught a stray from Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs.
