Los Angeles Chargers offensive coordinator Greg Roman discussed the team’s training camp practices, emphasizing daily changes in emphasis and installation processes. On Friday, the offense focused on deep passing, with quarterbacks Justin Herbert, Easton Stick, and Max Duggan all making successful deep throws during 11-on-11 periods. Notable plays included a 35-yard touchdown pass from Stick to DJ Chark and a long completion from Herbert to rookie tight end Zach Heins.
However, starting left tackle Rashawn Slater left practice early with a potential injury, leaving the team to make adjustments along the offensive line. This situation will be monitored as the Chargers continue practice leading up to Monday’s padded practice.
Other highlights from Friday’s practice included Gus Edwards still not participating in team drills due to offseason surgery, tight end Stone Smartt having a strong showing with a red zone touchdown, and an impressive two-minute drive led by Herbert to close out practice. Additionally, edge rushers Khalil Mack and Bud Dupree showed promise in coverage, while rookie linebacker Shane Lee forced a fumble during a drill.
Overall, the Chargers continue to make strides and adjustments as they prepare for the upcoming season under the leadership of head coach Jim Harbaugh. With a mix of experienced players and newcomers, the team is working on building chemistry and fine-tuning their strategies to make a strong start to the season.
