Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert took a wicked late shot at the hands of a Minnesota Vikings defender on Thursday night. Herbert popped back up and fired a touchdown to rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden a few plays later.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Carson Wentz has been hit with a big injury concern for the matchup against the Chargers.

Carson Wentz will start yet again for the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday night against the Los Angeles Chargers, but J.J. McCarthy's potential return may not be far off.

Minnesota’s expectation is that the extra rest it has given the former No. 1 pick will have him prepared to start against the Lions in Week 9.

The Los Angeles Chargers debuted some new threads for their Thursday Night Football contest against the Minnesota Vikings.

SoFi Stadium hosts its second Thursday night game of the season, only this time the Chargers are the home team.

One of the main themes of the Minnesota Vikings' season is the absence of starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy (ankle), but that hasn't been their only key injury. Both he and veteran running back Aaron Jones (hamstring) have missed the last four games, the latter of which has allowed new signee Jordan Mason to take most of the carries.
