🏈 Broncos 10, Chargers 0 — HALFTIME
Denver increased its lead over the Chargers on a Will Lutz 23-yard field goal in the final 10 seconds of the second quarter.
The Chargers finished the half without quarterback Justin Herbert, who is questionable to return because of a finger injury.
The injury appeared to be to Herbert’s right hand, based on television replays. He sustained a fractured left middle finger in Week 4 against Las Vegas but was able to continue playing without missing any time.
Easton Stick replaced Herbert for the Chargers’ final first-half drive and looked shaky during a three-and-out series.
The Chargers finished the half with six first downs and 93 total yards. They failed to convert any of their seven third downs and were zero for two on fourth down.
Over their past 2½ games, the Chargers have scored one touchdown on 27 offensive possessions.
The Broncos will receive the opening kickoff of the second half.
