The Los Angeles Chargers host the Baltimore Ravens on “Monday Night time Soccer” in what will probably be a measuring stick sport for them.
The Chargers have a shocking 7-3 document of their first season underneath head coach Jim Harbaugh, who will go up towards his brother John Harbaugh, the longtime head coach of the Ravens, of their first head-to-head matchup since Tremendous Bowl XLVII.
Earlier than the matchup, the Chargers made a handful of roster strikes.
“Chargers’ roster strikes forward of tonight’s sport vs. the Ravens: Positioned TE Hayden Hurst (hip) on injured reserve. Activated CB Deane Leonard off injured reserve. Signed CB Eli Apple to their energetic roster. Elevated S Tony Jefferson and LB Caleb Murphy from their observe squad,” ESPN insider Adam Schefter wrote on X.

Hurst has caught seven passes for 65 yards in seven video games this season for L.A. and offered some depth at what is without doubt one of the group’s weakest positions.
Apple, who was the No. 10 general choose within the 2016 NFL Draft, was signed by L.A. in October, and he has performed in three video games for them this season.
Jefferson hasn’t performed since Week 4, and Murphy has gotten spot responsibility in two video games for the Chargers since they signed him to their observe squad in late October.
The Chargers have the NFL’s prime scoring protection, they usually have allowed greater than 20 factors simply as soon as this season, in Week 11 once they scored a clutch 34-27 win towards the Cincinnati Bengals.
Whereas their general offense has been mediocre, they’ve gotten a powerful season from operating again J.Ok. Dobbins, whereas rookie vast receiver Ladd McConkey could also be creating right into a star.
A win towards Baltimore would elevate extra eyebrows throughout the NFL and maybe even elevate expectations so far as what L.A. can do come playoff time.
